Ahead of the Crowd - Vol. 2 - Travels Around the World David Leddick

"It was interesting to see Leddick's take on Paris in the 1960s. That's when air travel to Europe was just getting started." - Leanne Rylander, Liverpool"When the author went to a lot of these places, Americans were few and far between-a remarkable journey." -Jerry Adams, Atlanta "He certainly offers a fresh perspective on the exotic places he made it to. Places I can only hope I to visit-someday." - Philip Runmeade, BaltimoreDavid Leddick made his first international trip from the United States in 1963. He went to London, Paris and the major cities of Italy. In the next two decades he branched out from Europe to cross the vastness of a Russia that had seen almost no outsiders. Then, with a Zen study group, he traveled for a month through a China that was so closed off by its insular Communist regime that the inhabitants had seen no tourists at all. This period of Leddick's travels finished with a deep plunge into the depths of Africa on an extended safari. His fascinating exploration of the Earth, this globe on which he was traveling through space, had begun.
