Fun Read

So I bought this book for like $2.50 at a book sale because I thought it looked interesting and I like buying books for only $2.50. So a few days later I started reading it. It was surprisingly funny and informative. It didn't quite compare to the works of Wade Davis, but I enjoyed seeing the jungles of Borneo from the perspective of a non-scientist, the author is actually in the advertising business. His struggles were funny, informative, and sometimes very sad as he visits a disappearing people. It's a short read, definitely pick it up if you like travel or anthropology books, you'll be better for it.
