| Plot Summary of Travels |
"Bestselling fiction writer Michael Crichton describes his life and travels. It begins with his short-lived medical days, but most of the book fantastically tells of his adventures throughout the world including climbing Mount Kilamanjaro, exploring African wildlife, swimming with sharks, and becoming entranced by the paranormal in the Southwest U.S. desert."
