Summary: Perfect gift for frequent travelers (including yourself)
Comment: We loved this humorous collection of international grumbles about the mixed joys of travel. Curmudgeonly quotes from a wide-ranging assortment of grumpy notables from George Bernard Shaw to Dave Barry cover topics from specific destinations, from Akron to Winnipeg, plus notations on food, transportation, and accommodations. Great little book for bathroom reading, bedside tables, and whenever you're feeling grouchy and need a smile.
Rating: 3
Summary: More exact citations would have been nice.
Comment: This is a fun if not all that authoritative grab bag of humorous travel quotes, the latest in Jon Winokur's fun Curmudgeon quotes series. I saw quite a few that I hadn't seen before, and was richly entertained throughout. For everyone who has slogged through long car trips, hellish flights, and tried to have a good time at the other end. Guaranteed to bring a smile to your favorite quotehound on the go!
Rating: 5
Summary: A jaded view of travel experience
Comment: Anecdotes, quotes, and excess baggage accompany this jaded view of travel experience. From general words of wisdom ("If you can't see water, don't order fish.") to specifics about countries such as France ("Ever want to slap an entire country?"), Traveling Curmudgeon is impressively packed with insights and humor.
