More DescriptionIn this third volume of travel tales, Rufus McGaugh (who, in 2017, completed his 49-year quest to visit every country in the world) takes you back to some of the countries he's visited and takes you with him on a trek to six dangerous wanna-be countries in the Russian Caucasus (North Ossetia, Abkhazia, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Chechnya, and Dagestan). In the title chapter, Rufus also tells you how he sometimes came close but managed to avoid drowning all over the world. In addition, he regales the reader with more anecdotes from his life as a middle-school teacher and offers further insights into the life and psyche of a Vietnam vet (particularly in a section entitled "How to Come Home from a War"). Anyone who has read and enjoyed Rufus' first two volumes (LONGITUDE AND LATITUDE, WITH ATTITUDE and JOYRIDING WITH A TERRORIST IN YEMEN) will certainly enjoy this book. And readers who haven't read those two volumes will be scurrying to pick them up after they finish DROWNING IN ALL SEVEN CONTINENTS.
