Praise for the first book in the Strange Tales series:

"This book contains some of the most astonishing tales I've ever encountered. One after another. They make for obsessive reading." - Tim Cahill, author of Jaguars Ripped My Flesh

"What's the strangest thing you've ever seen or experienced?"

Gina and Scott Gaille have traveled to more than 100 countries, including many off-the-beaten-path places in Africa, South America, and Asia. Wherever they go, they ask this question. Everyone has a story, and some are truly extraordinary.

Strange Tales of World Travel, Volume 2 is the follow-up to the Gailles' award-winning debut. Their sequel entertains readers with 50 more thrilling, hilarious, heartbreaking encounters, including:

  • Mr. Centenarian, the 111-year-old who attributes his longevity to drinking and bathing in a magical river
  • Mr. Serengeti, who picked the wrong bush to relieve himself in while on safari
  • The Refugee, who witnessed his friend get shot for begging a soldier to protect his family from approaching rebels
  • Mr. Lucky to Live, who was scalped by an angry baboon, and many more.

Each story represents an indelible memory for its narrator. These are peak moments in their lives, tales they tell and retell. Once again, the Gailles bring them together in this captivating second volume of Strange Tales of World Travel.
