Night Train To Cairo

Bol

This dramatic book of colorful journeys is a talented filmmaker's poignant memoir of spiritual battlegrounds, political borders, and the human soul under fire.Over a far-ranging 50 year professional career, award-winning TV director & documentary filmmaker, Craig D. Forrest, has crisscrossed 161countries with equal parts camera and calling.His new travel memoir, Night Train to Cairo,blends adventure, faith, and culture in vivid, real-life stories from the road.He's captured a rare catalogue of powerful, visual imagery: from miraculous healings across Africa, exorcisms in Argentina, war zones in Iraq, Haitian voodoo rites, tribal cults in South Africa, the open secret of Fidel's sex trafficking in Cuba, cold mass graves in Bosnia, ethnic cleansing in Burundi, surreal Hindu ceremonies along the Ganges, and the horrific Killing Fields of Cambodia.Told in the spirit of Paul Theroux and Werner Herzog, this is not a filmmaker's tale, but a traveler's reckoning-of dangerous shoots, spiritual ambushes, miracles wrapped in hope, and the divine moments that revealed holiness. An engaging travelogue, plus a behind-the-scenes chronicle of faith-based film, his reflective book offers readers a raw, revealing look at the places most touristsnever see-with both the light and darkness only a lens can sometimes catch.
