J. O'Rourke about the author's travels to various venues.[1] Its chapters include "Republicans Evolving: The Galapagos Islands, April 2003", "A Freedom Ride through China: Spring 2006", "White Man Speak with Forked Tongue: The Field Museum, Chicago, May 2008", and "Home Unalone: New Hampshire, March 2011". O'Rourke uses wit to recount family travel to various tourist destinations.[2] It is loosely modeled after his earlier book Holidays in Hell. In the introduction, O'Rourke says, "[After my experiences as a war correspondent] I decided to write about pleasant places. ... I'd always been where people were shooting each other ... How, I wondered, does one undertake enjoyably going somewhere enjoyable?"
