Description
It is the next book in my True Travel Tales series. I have collected so many fascinating stories of traveling, transiting, and hitchhiking the world's highways and byways, from tales of overland travel by cars, buses, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, tuk-tuks, and yes, even by camels and elephants: one might say on conveyances from "cars to camels!"Indeed, suppose you consider the variety of ways travelers travel and transit overland. In that case, you will very well appreciate the wealth and variety of overlanding means by which travelers and adventurers engage to convey themselves from one place to another to participate in an enormous variety of overland activities that travelers engage in to get from point A to B.It's so huge, after all, the why and the wherefore of how we engage in so many land-based means of travel that it does nothing less than boggle the mind, so much so that in my True Travel Tales book series, I have dedicated this one entire volume to the myriad of overland-based and traveler-adventurer-related overland travel means by which travelers engage themselves in whether for the simple purposes of transport from say here to there to the almost limitless variety of entertainment, adventure, and sports activities as well as mind expansion that travelers engage themselves in.To be sure, the vast wealth and variety of land-based traveler-adventurer activities that people involve themselves with will be seen to include an almost unimaginable array of activities that a mere perusal of the chapter titles in Travel Tales: Driving Abroad - From Cars to Camels will be impetus enough to stir your imagination to appreciate more the considerable scope and variety of possibilities, including some unbelievable means of conveyance of which you may not have ever even thought of.So relax and read some of the most interesting overlanding travel tales that have resulted from my interviews with some 2,000 world travelers and adventurers on the subject of traversing and experiencing the world's most engaging roads and pathways.On a more serious note, please be advised that some of the stories in this book take a more somber look at some of the more serious close calls, great escapes, and some not-so-lucky overlanding encounters during their travel and adventures across the Globe. In travel and adventure, as in any other human activity, there are serious personal safety and security issues we must all address.Finally, very sadly and very somberly, no book on travelers' and adventurers' experiences could ever be complete without paying homage to those travelers who, through no fault of their own, have fallen victim to disappearing and even losing their lives at times to the dastardly (still very likely occurring) - north African slave trade, as well as elsewhere throughout the world.
