Not as interesting as Biking to the Arctic Circle, but still a good read. This book needed an editor worse than Biking did. There was a lot of redundancy in this descriptions and it's a personal pet peeve of mine when there are only 2 or 3 people speaking that the author uses their name every time. And he kept changing up the So-and-so said to ponder, interject etc. It was very jarring. And the italics with the exclamation points was over the top. I understand this isn't a widely read book and that it was written for his family and friends, but that's not a valid reason to not edit it.
