By Any Means - Charley BoormanSynopsis
Four million captivated viewers watched Charley Boorman complete his last adventure - LONG WAY DOWN - which took him from John O'Groats to Cape Town. Along with Ewan McGregor he achieved not only this amazing feat, but also circumnavigated the globe on the LONG WAY ROUND. In between these two incredible journeys, he found the time to compete in the Dakar Rally, telling his story in his bestselling book RACE TO DAKAR.
Charley's passion for travel and adventure continues in his new challenge - BY ANY MEANS. Travelling from his home town in Co Wicklow all the way to Sydney, he will use any means he can to reach his destination, via transport as diverse as steam train, horse, boat, kayak, truck, and tuk-tuk. And of course his beloved motorbike! Whether crossing the Black Sea, trekking through Tibet, riding an elephant in India or hiking through the forests of Papua New Guinea, this will be a unique opportunity to meet fascinating people and explore extraordinary places. With trademark enthusiasm, dedication and good humour, Charley's new trip is set to be his most challenging yet.
Our Verdict
Charley’s television series was fascinating as he travelled on a variety of modes of transport to reach Australia, and this book is a more detailed account of their journey, together with little maps and photographs illustrating the highlights of the journey. Charley has a very engaging style and this comes through in the book, its very much ‘boys-own adventure’ style. Open and honest it reveals the highs and lows of the journey. If you missed the television series this is a great opportunity to read about his adventures, and if you saw the series, this will remind yiou of some of the highlights. Great for inspiring others to make their own adventures.
