Lonely Planet by the Seat of My Pants (Lonely Planet) by Don George, a review from TLS by Tom Chesshyre.
"Don George is Lonely Planet's Global Travel Editor, and this is a quirky anthology of thirty-one stories by new and established travel writers, Jan Morris being the best known....George believes that travel is inherently comic, both in that it invites the out-of-the-ordinary, and that it often requires a sense of humour in order to get out of a tight squeeze."
