"The World's Most Dangerous Places" lists a range of countries and areas one would be best to avoid and the myriad reasons for avoiding them. Interestingly, I've been to ten of the countries listed as dangerous and survived visiting them all so I don't know if that makes me a hardened traveller or just particularly lucky.
Young Pelton sometimes sounds like he's bragging about all the dangers he's seen and I can imagine that if you were to meet him at the pub, his stories would get a bit tiresome after a while. So much better all round if you get the book and read at your pleasure. (
