“A perfect travel companion, Dolgin has friends (and the ability to make new ones) all over the world, a droll sense of humor and an insatiable curiosity about local history. Again and again, he introduces his readers to charming, unique aspects of familiar and exotic locales, doing an excellent job conveying sights ‘too wonderful to be imagined’. A highly enjoyable read, this should charm any sightseer, and inspire a number of travel plans”
- Publisher’s Weekly (starred review)
“Kevin Dolgin’s new 334-page paperback [...) is worth checking out. The book includes essays on 60 topics that range from the exotic to the accessible, most written with humor and wry observation."
- The Salt Lake Tribune
“Like a cross between Bill Bryson and Robin Williams, it’s surprizing that this is Dolgin’s first published novel, as he effortlessly ensares his readers with irreverent accounts of his life on the road.”
