Marco Polo Didn't Go There (Travelers' Tales Guides) is a collection of rollicking travel tales from Rolf Potts, a young writer whom USA Today has called "Jack Kerouac for the Internet Age." Potts documents his funniest and most hair-raising trips, from getting stranded in the Libyan desert without water to learning the secrets of Tantric sex in a dubious Indian ashram. "Armchair travelers will get an enormous kick out of this thoroughly entertaining book," swears Booklist.
