Product Description:
O'Hanlon takes us into the bug-ridden rain forest between the Orinoco and the Amazon--infested with jaguars and piranhas, where men would kill over a bottle of ketchup and where the locals may be the most violent people on earth (next to hockey fans).

This is an interesting travel book to read about Edmond O'Hanlon journey into the Amazon. Edmond manages to sucker a friend of his to come along on his crazy journey into the Amazon. His friend has no idea what he is getting himself into. It is an easy to read book with lots of English humour in it. Many time I found myself laughing. If you like travel books with adventure then this is a good read.

"In Trouble Again" by Redmond O'Hanlon is a book about exotic travel, exploration and adventure in the remote Amazon jungle and along its rivers.
O'Hanlon continues the flourishing line of eccentric English explorers who did so much to penetrate the far reaches of the known world a century or so ago - and indeed into the middle of the 20th century.

Redmond O'Hanlon is a good travel writer, bringing the reader into his canoe as he faces a torrent of dangers and unpleasant situations.

Reading Redmond O'Hanlon is like going on the worst camping trip ever, (bees, mosquitoes, ants, snakes and cannibals) without leaving your own living room. O'Hanlon has such a gentle way of describing the worst possible situations as though they were just par. I am glad I don't have to wade up piranha infested waters, but I am glad he did and lived to tell the tale.
Endearing. After reading this book I went and found all his previous and current publications. He gets better and better.
