The Exotic Booze Club [Idioma Inglés] - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

These are the true adventures of a National Geographic filmmaker - as seen through the bottom of a shot glass. The Exotic Booze Club is a wild, humorous ride, and the only memoir ever to reveal the secrets behind big-budget expedition filmmaking.When author, Brian Armstrong, was seven-years old, some bare-breasted tribeswomen commanded his attention. They gazed back at him from the pages of an old yellow-bordered magazine collected by his Uncle Ian. But it wasn t just the breasts. Vivid pictures of far-off jungles, exotic wildlife, and intrepid explorers also enthralled Brian. One cousin remembers him declaring, That s what I m going to do when I grow up. 25 years later that dream came true - or was it a nightmare? As a seat-of-the-pants expedition filmmaker, Brian found himself traveling from one death-defying adventure to another coping with snake bites, tornadoes, volcanoes, acid lakes, malaria, monsoons, armed rebels, enormous crocodiles, and even a helicopter crash. Time and time again he asked himself the same three questions: How did I get here? How do I get out of here? And most importantly, what s to drink? Against his prestigious employer s strict anti-alcohol policy, this irreverent rule breaker started the Exotic Booze Club to help unwind. Filmmakers and explorers would return to Armstrong s office with strange liquors to share, wild stories of daring exploits, and yes, sometimes pictures of naked tribeswomen. This book is the true story from behind-the-scenes of Armstrong s most dramatic films - framed by the life and death of the one-and-only Exotic Booze Club.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
