Book Review of Tuva or Bust! Richard Feynman's Last Journey

Tuva or Bust! Richard Feynman's Last Journey
reviewed on + 10 more book reviews


It's funny how infectious an adventure can be. This book is Ralph Leighton's retelling of both Richard Feynman and his quest to reach Tuva. As we all know, adventures are filled with many unexpected twists and turns. This story does include many of them. Note: Because this true story is told from the third person point of view, you do not get a true picture of what motivated Feynman. This does diminish the adventure a bit since no one but Feynmam can retell the delightful antics of the "curious character" but himself.
