I've only read Theroux's Riding The Red Rooster about the trans-Siberian railroad to China. I was suffering nausea 24/7 and the skies were gray day after day at the time. The book really brightened my life.

Just thought of another: Roald Dahl's Flying Solo. Man, the writing chops of that guy ... I think I've read the book probably three times, I loved it so much.
