About Richard Sterling
Travel, food and lifestyle journalist Richard Sterling is one of the foremost practitioners of the literature of gusto. He is the author of more than a dozen books and scores of magazine travel and food stories. The New York Times book page dubbed him “Indiana Jones of Gastronomy” long before Bourdain and Zimmern were frolicking on cable TV.
He has been honored by the James Beard Foundation for his food writing, he holds the Lowell Thomas Award and the ForeWord Award for travel writing, and he has been three times on Amazon.com best seller lists. He currently resides in Battambang, Cambodia where he is completing his first novel, a historical romance of French Indochina on the eve of WWII. The working title is Saigon Adieu.
Sterling’s writing is like spitfire, foursquare and jazzy with crackle, and his behavior is just scary enough to make you glad you’re not approaching a touchy border crossing in his company. — Kirkus Reviews

Nightstand reading of the first order. —Los Angeles Times
