I am not a passport collector but I saw someone reading your book in the train during my business trip and it caught my attention. So I bought it.

Sehr interessante Geschichten. Das Buch ist sehr vielfältig und hoch interessant! (Norbert, GER)
The book is fantastic! Really enjoying it. It will definitely be in our reading list for the online collection. (Karin, USA)
Your book is awesome, I can learn a lot about passport collecting! (Robert, USA)
I have begun my delighted perusing of your book. The stories of Lou Gehrig, the Confederate Brigadier General, Thomas, the bogus passport of Freud plus the Titanic survivor, Edith Brown Haussmann – all fascinating! (Susan, USA)

The story of how Israel issued me a passport with a Colander on my head has been published in a book about the history of passports, titled “Let Pass or Die”, by Tom Topol, a passport history expert. May the Flying Spaghetti Monster bless his sauces.
