Holidays To Hell

Deborah talks with Robert Young Pelton, the publisher of "Fielding's the World's Most Dangerous Places" (Fielding Worldwide: Redondo Beach CA, 1995). It's a travel guide to the most dangerous places in the world where tourists might want to visit. It explains what to expect, what to be careful of, and how to negotiate potentially dire circumstances; and, on top of being thorough and informative, the guide is very funny! (For more information, contact http://www.fieldingtravel.com) Deborah then talks with John McBride, a garbage collector who lives in Kidderminster, England. He's a bit of a celebrity in his community for his travels to dangerous places, like Rwanda, El Salvador, and he plans future trips to Chechnya and Zaire.
