Description
DEAD MEN DON'T LEAVE TIPS: Adventures X Africa is an edge of your seat true tale about a couple’s seven month “dream” odyssey–10,000 miles overland from London across Africa from top-to-tip. Against their better judgment, Brandon and Cheryl Wilson, confirmed independent travelers, join a bewildering band of companions and clueless guides. After their dream of crossing Africa becomes a nightmare, they set off across the continent alone. And that makes all the difference.

Join the adventurous couple as they meet mountain gorillas face to face. Melt down during a blistering Saharan breakdown. Hunt dik-dik with Pygmies. Climb Africa’s highest mountain. Feel the raw power of the Serengeti. Hop the "gun-run" through a civil war. Rush down thundering Class V Zambezi rapids and dive into South Africa’s cauldron of turmoil.

DEAD MEN DON'T LEAVE TIPS is sometimes funny, often anguished, yet always real. Unlike glossy, high-end magazine accounts, this is unsanitized for your protection. Nothing is held back: from the hustle and hassle of the souk to shady dealings in blackmarket alleys, from the frustration of border extortion to the thrill of sandmatting the Sahara eight feet at a time. It takes you onto the crazed roads of Africa, as well as into the lives and hearts of its people.
