A lively and entertaining book by a Harvard College scholarship student from Colorado. The author describes his experiences at Harvard and his Junior Year Abroad. His travels through Europe, North Africa and the Middle East in 1963-64 are told with vigor and immediacy. Keeney found Marrakech before the Beatles, and he visited Syria, Lebanon and Libya in a happier age before these places were reduced to rubble. Keeney climbed the Pyramid of Cheops, traveled the oceans on freighters, watched snake charmers with spitting cobras in baskets, bathed in a Jerusalem men's club built by King Herod, and got his feet washed by his Greek host's wife. These stories and many more bring to mind the beloved travel writings of Paul Theroux. In the last chapters, Keeney shows how his travels made him happier, and helped him to graduate with honors.
