I'm Always Going Somewhere: Mapping in Latin America for the Inter American Geodetic Survey Kindle Edition

I read with great interest, the new book, "I’m Always Going Somewhere." It’s a vivid description of what life was like for a crew of Americans who explored, mapped and conducted a detailed geodetic survey in Latin America in the late 1960s. The project was literally filling in the blank spaces on the map. There’s some technical information for those who want to know more but not too much to spoil a good story. A number of photos in the book show how primitive their working conditions and equipment were at that time. There are several chapters from another team member as well as a chapter written by one of the wives. This book is great read for the armchair traveler to explore a little known piece of American history.

I loved the book! Its written in such an entertaining way that I felt I was there:) My dad is Jack Rosholt and he was part of IAGS in 1952. He is retired and living here in Santa Cruz, Bolivia . I'm sure he would love to tell some of his stories.

This book is a great read. It offers a glimpse into a little known part of USA history in Latin America. The individuals discussed in this book had to put up with tremendous hardships while performing their duties for the IGSW. These stories truly are "stranger than fiction." I highly recommend this interesting and informative piece of adventure non-fiction.

What an incredible journey, physically and emotionally, this group had to endure! I felt like I was living each experience with them. They performed an invaluable service for these counties and lived to tell about it!! A great read!

I know the author personally and can't believe he did so much. His writing style is much more than I would expect from only "such a nice guy." Good quick read.
