Description
This is an auction for EXTREME FRONTIERS by Charley Boorman.
Subtitled "Racing Across Canada From Newfoundland To The Rockies".
Amazon.com reviews:
“Charley Boorman is back on his bike exploring the world's second largest country - home to some of the most stunning and challenging terrain known to man. Canada is a country of extremes, and Charley knows all about pushing the limits. He goes dirt biking in New Brunswick, dives through old shipwrecks in Tobermory and rides along Butch Cassidy's old Outlaw Trail. He also meets a fascinating mix of people on his journey. As he heads across Canada, he plays ice hockey with a legend of the game; spends a day as a Mountie cadet and nearly meets a ghost in Winnipeg... Written with Charley's trademark enthusiasm and humour, Extreme Frontiers is fast-paced, hugely entertaining and packed with adventure (and rather a lot of mosquitoes)."
"FIVE STARS!!! Charley Boorman's starting to establish a reputation as a good travel writer in his own right, having had done several travel documentaries and tie-in books, both with his friend Ewan McGregor and on his own. In this book, Charley travels across Canada, from east to north to west, by various means, getting to know the country, meeting new people and undertaking things he wouldn't have thought he'd be doing. He's got a good, informal sense of style in the way he writes- pretty much the way he talks, and he keeps the reader drawn into the narrative. Well recommended to those who liked Long Way Round and Long Way Down."
