Product Description

For years, British journalist Cash Peters trekked around Europe and America visiting some of the tackiest attractions in the world for his hugely popular public-radio series, The Bad Taste Tours. But a guy can only take so much. Now, as Peters prepares to leave his travel-reporting days behind forever, he takes us along on some of the more ridiculous journeys and adventures of his career. Good-bye, Kansas Barbed Wire Museum; au revoir, Paris sewer system tour; auf Wiedersehen, Sound of Music locations tour.

Join Peters on this outrageous behind-the-scenes look at the frustrations of a travel reporter on the road. Marvel at his ongoing battle with PR people and at his fights with men dressed in foam costumes, and gloat because you don't have to visit the Museum of Bad Art, the Precious Moments Theme Park, or the Museum of Dirt - and he does.

This is a very funny and entertaining book that sometimes made me giggle and sometimes made me laugh out loud. In many ways, the tourist attractions that Cash describes are incidental. It is his perceptive observations on ordinary people and daily life that I enjoyed the most. I especially liked his Top Ten Self-Evident Life Truths ('People who drink and smoke are more interesting than those who don't' etc.), the 'hallmarks' of bad artists and the witty asides he makes. I can't wait for the next installment!

Reviewer: A reader from Ocala, FL United States
Well-written, erudite travel books, especially with outrageous humor, are almost impossible to find. This one is a doozie! Living in the hinterlands, I've never heard Mr. Peters on the radio, so I can only hope that this book is just the first of many more to come. I'm a great fan of Bill Bryson, and I'm happy to report that Cash Peters is every bit as good and in some respects better. Mr. Peters may be gullible, but his insights are rapier sharp. This is a book to confirm your sanity in a world that often seems dreadfully askew. Great writer, great book. More please.

Very, very funny 14 Feb 2004
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Before I read this book I had no desire to visit the world's largest ball of twine or the Museum of Dirt. I still don't. But I am glad that Cash Peters did. This guy is hilarious. This is much more than a travel book, it's a rather touching voyage of discovery in the company of a very entertaining writer. Cash Peters is a witty and cynical commentator who can turn a great one liner, but he's also insightful and rather lovable. He just can't bring himself to hate the wacko places he visits. Listening in to his bemused musings on the importance of Bad Art I found myself convinced that if I had to visit the Precious Moments Theme Park, this is the man I would want to be with. A very, very funny and engaging book. Highly recommended.
