Description

In his brilliant first book, 150 Thing Every Man Should Know, Gareth May instructed the young man about town in vital life lessons such as how to undo a girl's bra with one hand, and how to down a pint without being sick. All well and good. But there comes a time in most young men's lives when, their education completed, they decide to spread their wings and travel to foreign climes. From international dining etiquette to the safe ascension of Kilimanjaro, and surviving a shark attack to cooling cans of beer in the Savanna sun, Gareth's simple and brilliantly executed new book, Man of the World, is a must-have for the modern man setting off passport in hand for the first time. Covering every possible travel scenario - from international chat-up lines to how to survive a shark attack, must-visit nudist colonies or how to organise the ultimate stag weekend abroad - never before has a book listed how to read global currency rates on one page, and how to drink snake blood in Cambodia on the next.
