I enjoyed Ed Culberson's book on crossing the Darien Gap. It pretty much answered the question on why virtually no one dares to cross this inhospitable area.
A bit off the subject of motorcycling, but definately for those who love adventure travel, any of the books from Robert Young Pelton are fantastic. I just got the latest edition of "The World's Most Dangerous Places" and "The Hunter, The Hammer and Heaven" was also terrific. Reading RYPs books motivate me as well as anyone, he is one hell of an adventurer!
