Synopsis

After Paul Stutzman finished hiking the Appalachian Trail, he found himself longing for another challenge, another adventure. Trading his hiking boots for a bicycle, Paul set off to discover more of America. Starting at Neah Bay, Washington, and ending at Key West, Florida, Paul traversed the 5,000-mile distance between the two farthest points in the contiguous United States. Along the way he encountered nearly every kind of terrain and weather the country had to offer—as well as hundreds of fascinating people whose stories listeners will love. Through cold and heat, loneliness and exhaustion, abundance and kindness, Paul pedaled on. His reward—and the listeners'—is a glimpse of a noble yet humble America that still exists and inspires.

Anyone who longs for adventure, who loves travel and stories of travel, and who loves this place called America will enjoy this book.

Reviews

Goodreads review by Jeff

Like others, I have to criticize the religiousness of this book. I had hoped for a bike touring book, with descriptions of the ride, the people, the places, etc. Instead I got a book which was more self-justifying evangelical christian preaching and "I covered 92 miles today." The premise is good.........more

Goodreads review by Tom

Amazon and Goodreads know that I read a good bit of books about touring by bicycle. Both insisted that I read this book for some time. A Goodreads friend recommended the book this past week, I purchased the book immediately, something odd for me to do. The author might say it was not a coincidence.......more
