Man Mission, a memoir by Eytan Uliel, gives an account of a 15-year adventure across different countries by four friends. With some set of rules and series of events like kayaking, hiking, and biking, each mission turned out to be unique and fascinating. They were able to meet people of several races and learn about their way of life. Having faced opposition from their wives and busy work schedules, they still kept up with the yearly vacation.

Starting a family, journeying into fatherhood, caught between being a great father and husband, and being overwhelmed with their careers and office workloads, the friends saw the vacation as a bid to escape the stress of it all. But what happens when challenges come knocking, signs of a marriage collapsing, or frustration at work appears to be overwhelming? Will the mission be the much-needed solace they desire? Will this yearly vacation still continue? Will they be able to come out of their painful and depressing moments?

This book contains a series of life lessons. It taught lessons on the advantage of true friendship, love, and family. The friends helped to stand in for each other in their times of pain and joy, which increased their bond. The author also gave an insight into how parenting can be from his experience.

Starting from the first chapter to the last, I enjoyed reading each page. I commend the author for alternating the past and present events; this made the story easy to understand and less confusing. The book also has a good amount of humor, making it interesting to read. The structuring of each chapter was top-notch. It helped give a better insight into each adventure without confusing the reader. The end of every chapter also presented a very short summary of each adventure, which I applaud. The author did a fantastic job of describing and narrating each event.

The only thing I found to dislike about the book was the illegibility of the texts, which slowed down my reading pace. Nevertheless, I still found this book a good read.

I would rate this book four out of four stars. I found each chapter enlightening, thrilling, and refreshing. Every chapter had its set of unique explorations, which I was always anticipating. I found just one error; hence, I would say the book was professionally edited.

I would recommend this book to lovers of travel stories, adventure, and young adults. Likewise, I'll also recommend it to mature minds because of the heavy use of vulgar words.
