DIGGING FOR THE TRUTH One Man's Epic Adventure Exploring the World's Greatest Archaeological Mysteries

Viewers of Josh Bernstein's TV series "Digging for the Truth" saw the survival expert take risks in every episode to explore the facts behind various legends. In his book, Bernstein tells how he coped with insects, house arrest, food poisoning and other illness, and exhaustion, not to mention eating a guinea pig for Thanksgiving dinner. Oddly, Bernstein doesn't read his own writing here, but William Dufris mixes wry humor with a sense of wonder and gee-whiz excitement to make a great substitute. Listeners can hear the enthusiasm of discovery and the frustration of delays and setbacks in his voice. Anyone who's wondered what it's like to create popular documentaries will find this book interesting. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/ SEP 07]
