Tony Wheeler's Dark Lands 1
Lonely Planet: The world''s leading travel guide publisher
Greedy Lords, dubious heroes, wicked relations and innocents in peril - today''s world sounds like a grim fairytale
Travelling along the infamous ''Axis of Evil'' led to Tony Wheeler''s Bad Lands - now he''s going deeper into the world''s darkest corners to explore a rogue''s gallery of troubled nations.
Every country has its problems, but some problems seem so vexed, so intractable, so absurd, you can only shake your head. Tony Wheeler trains his well-travelled eyes on some of these places and attempts to understand how things got so messed up. Along the way he gets stoned (with the thrown variety) in Palestine, scores a speeding ticket in Zimbabwe, gets arrested for photographing a bar in the Congo, and visits Osama bin Laden''s Abbottabad in Pakistan. Join Tony and find out if there''s a happily-ever-after in these tales from the dark side.
