I don’t care much for travel stories unless someone feels a little pain, suffers a little misfortune, or loses a little dignity, and I wouldn’t choose to write a book about anything less. Adventure is good, but when it goes wrong, it’s great. Fortunately, I have a natural propensity for finding myself in awkward, uncomfortable, and occasionally downright dangerous situations. Misadventure is Better follows author David Campbell around the world, spanning five continents over seven years, focusing only on those moments that bring him face to face with failure. Rather than a single narrative arc, it is presented as a series of sketches each with their own unique story. Those with a sense of whimsy will enjoy his antics as a sleepwalker caught in someone else’s bed and afoot on a train in the middle of the night. Those with a sense of adventure will get contentious run-ins with border guards, a near-death attack by killer bees and the violent fevers of Malaria. Those who appreciate thoughtfulness will get tribal initiations in West Africa and long sailing voyages, all with their fair share of adversity to overcome. Misadventure pushes David time and again into uncomfortable positions that make him question his ability, find empathy with foreign cultures, and seek a life of urgency.

Misadventure is Better Adventure is good When it goes wrong it great Mr David L Campbell 9781502319173 Books

A must read for all adventure lovers young or old. Most compelling for me was the author's ability to combine adventure with the deep appreciation of other people and cultures. Seeing the world is exciting,but what one remembers longest are those human encounters which make us who we are. This book celebrates those encounters.

Holy cow. What an inspiring read! I don't often read travel books, as they never seem to grasp my full attention, but this one was tops. It is captivating, enthralling, and a perfect balance of light-hearted and metaphysical. I tore through it in days. The intimate details of Mr. Campbell's adventures will leave you simultaneously longing for less responsibility and more adventure, yet grateful for where you are at.
This should prove to be a great read for seasoned travelers and novices alike. With non-stop action and hilarious misfortunes, it does not disappoint. It was certainly fun getting lost in someone else's adventures!
This book is a MUST READ for anyone doing more as they travel than going on a cruise. David conveys the common experience of any traveler who has spent a while abroad. As some who has lived overseas for a number of years, I read as he recounted his misadventures at the edge of my seat and with alarming eagerness. I feel like, he basically wrote my experiences as a traveler down. Not that I had all the same experience (I'm definitely not as adventurous as him), but the feelings and thought-processes almost mimicked my feelings and thought-processes as I settled in foreign lands for months or years at a time. Plus, I could not agree more with the title because after all MISADVENTURE IS BETTER! I've sent this book to all of my world-traveling friends to read!

P.S. The introduction and bee chapter alone is worth buying this book to read.
This is by far the best travel book I have ever read. It's funny, interesting, full of adventure. I highly recommend it to everyone who longs to see the world.
