Review: A Rock and a Hard Place: An American Geologist's Adventures in Africa

A Rock and a Hard Place: An American Geologist's Adventures in Africa A Rock and a Hard Place: An American Geologist's Adventures in Africa by George Zelt
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Delightfully adventurous, reading George Zelt's nonfiction narrative of his decades in geology and petrology is akin to enjoying the wild adventures of his heroes, such as Mark Twain, Jules Verne, and Jack London. Mr. Zelt is well blessed with both the "stories to tell" and the talent and wit to express them well for the edification of readers, many of whom are "armchair travellers" enjoying vicariously.
