For as long as I have known him (two-plus decades), Bob Whitt has always been a marvelous raconteur. Throughout the years of our association, he has offered up amazing stories about his action-packed life as the publisher of a U.S. news magazine in South America.
Now Bob has taken his sagas and fleshed them out for a memoir called "Expat: Survival of an Expatriate in Latin America" by Robert Ampudia Whitt III (Tate Publishing & Enterprises).
The book is compelling not simply because I know the author and know that it reads exactly like he talks – including his dryly humorous observations about cross-cultural miscues between Norte Americanos and their southern counterparts.
