Publisher's Summary

Michael Brein's Travel Tales Collection: Close Calls and Great Escapes 1 features a bunch of frightening and horrific tales of fear and panic that can most certainly happen to you in your travels. Scary things do happen occasionally, and mostly your travels are the usual, typical, expected sorts of normal non-anxious experiences. But there are also those unexpected, strange and dangerous surprises that pop up now and again in your journeys.

The Travel Tales Collection: Close Calls and Great Escapes 1 features stories of panic, dangerous men, and menacing Gypsies, such as in "Men with Machetes", "Bad Day at Red Frog", "Airline Hijacking", and more.

Just because you've never experienced danger at home, let alone in your travels, doesn't mean it cannot happen to you sometime when you least expect it!

The Travel Tales Collection: Close Calls and Great Escapes 1 is part of Michael Brein's "Collections" travel tales series and contains among the best travel stories from Michael's huge collection of travel tales that he has gathered in interviews with nearly 1,750 world travelers and adventurers during his four decades of travel to more than 125 countries throughout the world.

"Travel Tales Collections" are groups of very interesting similar travel stories of a kind on a variety of very specific travel subjects, themes, or countries, such as close calls, great escapes, pickpocketing, scams, safety and security in travel, Paris, Morocco, Mexico, and so on.

Eventually, several hundred "Collections" on all sorts of specific travel subjects, themes, and countries will be available.
