It's very interesting, and laugh out loud funny. The little illustrations are excellent as well. It's free on Amazon.

I reread it occasionally, because it's also a wonderful tribute to a whole generation of men who have since passed on.
I felt the same way about Eric Newby's A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush.
