Synopsis
This book chronicles the experiences of a young English motorcyclist traveling alone from New York to San Francisco following the end of World War I. The narrative is full of rich and often humorous anecdotes about a time when motorcycling was a much different experience than it is today. From his musings on American culture and infrastructure to his vivid descriptions of the changing American landscape, the author provides a unique historical perspective on a nation emerging from war into an era of prosperity and self-discovery. The author's journey is also a personal one, as he grapples with the challenges of the road and the solitude it brings, finding both frustration and exhilaration in equal measure. Through it all, the author's love of motorcycling and his wry sense of humor shine through, making this book an engaging and nostalgic read for anyone interested in the history of motorcycling, travel, or Americana.
