Review
"Garry Sowerby is smarter than he looks, just about as funny, and more fun to read than a barrel full of lug nuts... Tips from the master road tripper himself."
Product Description
A fun book about many fun and gruelling road trips. Garry Sowerby is in the "Guiness Book of World Records" for the record time of driving around the world, and for his other amazing road trips. Since the 1970's he has been making these trips and this book chronicles many of his adventures, the people he meets, and the sometimes bizarre situations and places he gets himself into and out of! With a dash of irreverence and a good bit of intrigue, "Sowerby's Road" doles out 50 fresh tales that pack an invigorating escape from the everyday. The stories include tales in Texas, New York, Alaska, Labrador, Moscow, Iran, Pakistan, the Sudan Tierra del Fuego, Turkey, Ethiopia, the Australian Outback, and many more.

Wow! What a traveler!, Jun 5 2005
By Bonnie Neely - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sowerby's Road: Adventures of a Driven Mind (Paperback)
SOWERBY'S ROAD by Garry Sowerby. What a fun book about many fun and grueling road trips. Garry Sowerby is in the Guiness Book of World Records for the record time of driving around the world, and for his other amazing road trips. Since the 1970's he has been making these trips and this book chronicles many of his adventures, the people he meets, and the sometimes bizarre situations and places he gets himself into and out of! It's a fun read, especially if you like to spend time on the road, as we do. The book is not in day by day order, but is better and more interesting for skipping around through the decades and around the world as he remembers various adventures. You'll enjoy the book and only wish, as I did, that the photos were fewer of his vehicle and more of the sights. Really a fun read!
