GRANDFATHER vs PERU

This carries on with the Grandfather of Grandfather Objects with his travels through Peru, his investment in a pregnant giraffe, his peculiar deals with the scoundrel Carlos Murphy. The author is forced to cope with Grandfather's gustatory excitements, his bottomless curiosity, his unbridled enthusiasms. From the boat trip down to the high spot departure, this is bright bickering rather than formal baedekering, hilarious enough to be almost too good to be true.
