Bliv medlem af LibraryThing for at finde ud af, om du vil kunne lide denne bog. Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. Another bike-across-America book. Not as enjoyable as some of the others. This author doesn't do a complete journey, but does 3 separate trips - 2 with partners, one solo. The first 2 sections, detailing the trips with others, really felt like Cliff's Notes versions of the story. A couple of paragraphs describing an incident or an in-depth conversation then onto a new topic. The third section, describing the solo trip, finally started reading like the other touring books I've read, with more details and thoughts. I wish he would have stated the year he did this also. The book is copyrighted in 1997, so I'm guessing mid-90's. Nothing here that hasn't been said before. ( ) ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Middle-aged, overweight and mounted on an old bicycle, the author rides across America with a zestful appreciation for the land and the people who frequent its back roads and inhabit its small towns. With a gift for seeing both the ridiculous and the profound in everyday life, Stan uses his storytellers skills to narrate this trip of a lifetime. No library descriptions found. |
