Travel Tales: Snakes & Other CrittersCollects Michael Brein’s numerous accounts of the nearly 2,000 interviews with travelers he has met in his own travels around the world over the last five decades.Although the typical travel stories collected in the True Travel Tales book series are ordinarily oriented towards safety and security issues in travel, the very scary and dangerous accounts of snakes, scorpions, poisonous and deadly insects, other crawling critters, nasty pests, and nuisances of all kinds, and all sorts of variations in between are indeed reported by travelers.Mostly these encounters with nasty, dangerous, wild, and annoying critters will not likely happen to you. But you never know. You’ll read in the series plenty of examples of the wide variety of encounters with snakes and other nefarious critters that may pop up now and again in your travels as well as your own daily home life. This book, however, about pests, nuisances, and dangerous wild critters adds to all sorts of true accounts of other kinds of close calls and great escapes in connection with all sorts of scary travel situations including chases, foiled kidnappings, attacks, roadblocks, scary places, trips from hell, borders, and police, hitchhiking, international spying, smuggling, and intrigue, being in the wrong places at the wrong times, terror attacks, bandits, Mexican standoffs, airplane crashes, accidents and mishaps, white slavery, robberies, sexual harassment and assaults and more.
