Hoffman, a contributing editor at National Geographic Traveler, has written a hair-raising account of his six-month global trek on the world’s most dangerous conveyances. He embarks on ferries that kill some 1,000 people a year, takes overcrowded commuter trains in Mumbai, traverses washed-out roads in the Amazon, and goes Greyhound from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., all the while meeting an amazing variety of people.
