Travel Book Reviews - Susan Griffith
A very funny Englishman (called Moore) and a very serious American (called Moor) both achieve epic challenges. The first cycling from northern Finland to the Black Sea, the second hiking the Appalachian Trail and beyond. Plus a witty yet serious essayist who ponders the in-built disappointments of travel.
