Praise
Mickey Mestel is a passionate storyteller who loves to tell about the odd, exotic experiences from his faraway travels. In Wandering Turkana, he muses about everything from riding a bus in Africa to the natural ways of the nomadic Turkana. His search for Spirit leads him to one of the harshest environments on our planet. It is worth your time to take the journey with him.

Way off the beaten track, this splendid book shows an Africa that is fast disappearing. This journey of the mind, following in the steps of MIckey, a thoughtful, tough American, and Ismail, an Afriacn guide, with their donkey handlers, porters, and fellow travelers, is unliekly to age.
