Travels with Herodotus
Travels with Herodotus records how Kapuscinski set out on his first forays - to India China and Africa - with the great Greek historian constantly in his pocket. He sees Louis Armstrong in Khartoum visits Dar-es-Salaam arrives in Algiers in time for a coup when nothing seems to happen (but he sees the Mediterranean for the first time). At every encounter with a new culture Kapuscinski plunges in curious and observant thirsting to understand its history its thought its people. And he reads Herodotus so much that he often feels he is embarking on two journeys - the first his assignment as a reporter the second following Herodotus' expeditions.
