Travels

I can vouch for Travels - nice to see someone mention it! It is a great book. Crichton had a fascinating career - he was in medical school, but he was insanely productive writing novels and earning a living. He was a fantastic writer, director, traveler, producer... Strangely, for someone so brilliant, he did not believe in global warming!!!

Travels, by Michael Crichton - a sort of autobiography with some excellent lessons on life. I've never met anyone else who's read it for some reason. Ishmael - recommended on here but doesn't seem well known in the UK. Everyone I've recommended to has enjoyed The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists - Proof that politics hasn't changed much in 100 years Jonathon Livingston Seagull - again well known on here, but not so much generally

Not sure if these books are unknown or fallen out of favor, but I've never spoken to anyone else who's read them without me passing them on first: Travels - Michael Crichton - a number of useful life lessons I'm only just catching up on https://www.amazon.co.uk/Travels-Vintage-Departures-Michael-...

Travels - Michael Crichton, got me into travelling, the outdoors and an interest in inner travel The hobbit - came with the adventure game that my aunty had on her c64 got me into computers and reading aged about 7 Fear - Thich nhat hahn, read repeatably during recent hard times. Might need to re-read again soon...

I always really enjoyed Travels by Michael Crichton. Considering how popular he is I've never spoken to anyone else who's read it. It gave me a lot to think about in my early 20s. I also enjoyed Jonathon Livingston Seagull, which seems to have fallen out of favour recently.
