For those who long for adventure, who love travel and stories of travel and who love this place called America, Paul Stutzman offers an invitation to join him on his next challenging adventure in Biking Across America..
After 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 readers will love. Through cold and heat, loneliness and exhaustion, abundance and kindness, Paul pedaled on. His reward – and the readers’ – is a glimpse of a noble yet humble America that still exists and inspires…
ISLAND BREEZES
Paul Stutzman has done two things that I would have liked to have done. He’s hiked the entire Appalachian Trail and biked across the United States from the two farthest points in this country.
Can you imagine the adventures he’s had and the people he’s met? He shares some of them with us. He ran across some very interesting people.
You can hop on you bike and join him in a journey across the States. Or maybe, just curl up in a cozy chair and read about his exploits. It’s an adventure either way.
Even if you think you don’t care much for non-fiction, you’ll still really like this book.
