My biggest takeaway from this book is that all these dudes had way too much free time.

Cool cool cool. The two main players have already almost died and the expedition hasn't even actually started. I'm sure they'll do the reasonable thing and call the whole endeavor off...

In college, I took an Art History class about Ancient Egyptian art and it still took me almost three chapters to remember why Richard Burton's name sounded familiar 🙄.
The narrator for this audiobook is astounding, btw. He's done British, Arabic, French, and German accents already, and shifts between them so fluidly it mesmerized me.
