Description
Trevelyan Quest Edwards cycled from Ireland to Istanbul solo, documenting his journey along the way. He did not use a watch, relying only on his compass. He was an interesting and candid observer, camping on a budget of next-to-nothing and cycling through mountainous terrain. His book is a compilation of his blog entries, which makes it an easy read. His adventures were filled with random kindnesses, eccentrics, falls, punctures, and steep kilometers in between. This book is worth sharing.
