About this series
The first in a series of books collecting travel and humor pieces the author wrote for a fabulously well-regarded newspaper column ("fabulously well-regarded" by his two dozen readers, anyway) while traveling overseas and teaching college-level English classes onboard US Navy ships. "Vol 1: Wanderer", contains 28 essays and 24 photographs spanning the Middle East (the short span: Bahrain and Dubai); Italy (Trieste, Naples, and Sardinia); and the Mediterranean in general (Palma de Mallorca, and, er, Sardinia again!); oh, and Turkey, too! Thrill as he rides a camel! Gasp as he avoids immolation in a volcano (by not, y'know, falling in)! Be filled with the joy of travel. Approx. 25,000 words / 135 print pages.

- Essays in Travel and Humor Vol. 2: Nomad
This second volume of author and photographer C. Patrick Neagle's series is even bigger and better than the first, containing 36 travel-sized essays and 30 photographs from around the globe (but mostly from Arabia, Asia, and the Mediterranean). Written while the author taught college classes on board US Navy ships and originally published in a weekly newspaper column, these essays are filled with humorous and sometimes thoughtful commentary. They may even help you to avoid moped gangs in Europe, dive for pearls in Bahrain, and ride elephants in Malaysia. Or not. Pack your bags and settle into your armchair for a fun-filled journey around the world.
