Do Travel Writers Go to Hell?

"Hired as a contributor to a guidebook on Brazil, Thomas Kohnstamm left his job to fulfil his dream of being a travel writer. But he soon learned that the reality was far different than his expectations. In this book Thomas tells the story that didnt make it into the guidebook the tale of a desperate twenty-something ploughing his way through impossible amounts of research, a shrinking bank balance, a bevy of temptations and a looming deadline, ith the only comfort being that what he couldn't plagiarise, he could always make up!"--Provided by publisher.
