Sidestepping the well-trod tourist path, he travels the country from Moscow to Vladivostok--across seven time zones and almost 9,500 kilometers--making stops in Chechnya, Saint Petersburg, Siberia, and beyond. Staying with an eclectic array of hosts, he bumps into gun nuts, Internet conspiracy theorists, faux shamans, and Putin fans; learns to drive in death-defying Russian style; and discovers how to cure hangovers by sniffing rye bread. But he also sees a darker side of the country, witnessing firsthand the effects of Putin's influence in the run-up to the 2016 American election and the power of propaganda in this "post-fact" era."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 947.0864 Or Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 947.0864 Orth Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 947.0864 Or Checked In Add Copy to MyList
