During a seven-year journey around India, Emma Levine heard about the wonderful game of buzkashi, a kind of anarchic rugby on horseback where teams of men wrestle and race to grab a headless goat and propel it towards goal. This sparked a desire to explore Asia's unique traditional sports. A Game of Polo with a Headless Goat is Emma Levine's absorbing account of her epic adventure, which took her from camel wrestling in Turkey through bull racing in India and traditional gymnastics in Iran. Illustrated with stunning photography, this book evocatively portrays sporting ways of life rarely seen in the western world, revealing what it is about sport that makes it so universally inspiring.

 From the Book: Beer in Dublin Photo by amsher/Frommers.com Community, Dublin's Temple Bar Area Renowned for producing Ireland's most famous export (Guinness), drinking beer is a way of life in Dublin. Despite the high prices, you'll find pubs and traditional alehouses full of happy patrons. Where to Drink: No beer pilgrimage would be complete without the Guinness Storehouse tour, which ends with the requisite free pint in the Gravity Bar. Perhaps the most celebrated beer institution is the Porterhouse and its nine exclusive beers. Throughout Dublin, local brews are served at hundreds of authentic pubs, including Dawson's Lounge, the traditional Stag's Head, and the cool Solas, which has a summer beer garden. Average pint of lager: 4.50 Euro
