Book safely packaged and delivered promptly. Item as described. Very impressed by the quick delivery of this book. This is a great book (I am familiar with earlier editions) and a must have for those interested in audio recording, to get this edition for a great price was a complete no brainer. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed, really, with such a quick delivery- but clearly communicated as to dispatch. Thank you, WeBuyBooks.

    Stranger Things....

    The first of Chatwin's books but oddly the last to be read by me. Often said to be the book that re-defined or re-invigorated the art of travel writing. The skeleton of Chatwin's future style - much evident in say the Songlines - is there. The travel being merely a framework on which to hang any number of intriguing stories ranging from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid to the self-proclaimed King of Patagonia. However, now that we know that Chatwin was not averse to embroidering the truth or indeed simply making stuff up - then it is difficult to see how this can be regarded as "Travel Writing" as such or simply Chatwin's own modern peculiar hybrid of "travtion" or "fictrel" perhaps? Having said that, the book was never less than both entertaining and educational. And together with the ...

    Travel Classic

    In Patagonia is a long established of travel writing that, with one of two caveats, lives up to its reputation. The first caveat is that I found a period early on in the book that dragged and the second is that I couldn't help feeling that on occasions the "truth" of the book is embellished with a good helping of fiction. Bruce Chatwin is more storyteller than reporter; In Patagonia is none the worse for that and I thoroughly enjoyed what was on offer.

    Nice book

    The book that 'made' Chatwin in an attractive and inexpensive edition. Good value for money and a trip down 'Amnesia Lane' for me.
