Synopsis

Walk with author David Garnes as he climbs the Pyramid of the Sun in Mexico, explores the ruins on the Greek island of Delos, strolls the streets of 1970s Moscow, and experiences first-hand the magic that is Haiti.

Feel the spell of London, New York, Paris, Rome, Hollywood, and Key West through the words of a wide-eyed and observant globetrotter as he recreates moments that all travelers (actual and armchair) will appreciate.

From the memory of a boy encountering his unexpected hero to the recollections of a man living through the tumultuous decade of the 1960s in Manchattan, the author recreates a life of discovery, wonder, and reflection.
