Description

A sharp-shooting SWAT team, a Venezuelan producer of alcoholic love potions, and an audacious subway rat are among the cast of characters award-winning author Darrin DuFord encounters in Breakfast for Alligators: Quests, Showdowns, and Revelations in the Americas. Through such mediums as public transit, cuisine, urban wildlife, and music, DuFord (author of Is There a Hole in the Boat? Tales of Travel in Panama Without a Car, 2007 Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Awards silver medalist) has created a collection of insightful pieces that expose the desires and realities shaping landscapes from Chile to Canada. From surviving a journey in a homemade submarine off the coast of Honduras to receiving a lesson in aging from the street art of Valparaiso, DuFord's lively, engaging narratives show how travel has the ability to illuminate cultures while unleashing their bottomless complexities. 


Gold medal winner, 2017 Independent Publisher Book Awards


“Chronicling his gastronomic and geographic adventures, DuFord’s playful and pop-culture peppered prose (describing Nicaragua’s Caballito as “the country’s White Castle of hooch”) makes for succulent travel writing.” —Publishers Weekly


“Gritty, funny, street-savvy, boisterous, and informative.” —William Caverlee, Perceptive Travel


“DuFord has created a series of magical and often humorous travel stories in which no local foods, material realities, or local rituals are off-limits. Breakfast for Alligators is a joy to read.” —Gregory Hubbs, editor of Transitions Abroad


“Intrepid and chronically curious, Darrin DuFord charges into the more obscure corners of Latin America and brings back revealing, sometimes bizarre details. Warning: may inspire impulse plane-ticket purchases.” —Zora O’Neill, author of All Strangers Are Kin: Adventures in Arabic and the Arab World


“Darrin DuFord’s latest magnum opus vividly takes us from the steamy New Orleans suburbs to the jungles of Guyana to the coffee-covered hills of Nicaragua and beyond. This is more than breakfast: it’s a readable, enjoyable feast, best consumed any time of day or night.” —David Farley, author of An Irreverent Curiosity


“Duford[’s]…richly descriptive and humorous work stands up to the best of Peter Mayle and Anthony Bourdain.” —Tim Patterson, The Matador Network
