Voyage long

Long Way Round: Chasing Shadows Across the World

Ewan McGregor, Charley Boorman

Atria, 2005

Great book
Great book that should be a companion to the DVD set. I do recommend that instead of this book you buy the illustrated edition. MOre pictures and the same verbage. But, buy at least one of them.

Long Voyage Back: A Novel

Luke Rhinehart

Naval Institute Press, 1995

Just like you were there & very believable!
Although this book was written in 1983, it is just as scary and applicable today. Rhinehart wrote a very realistic book about nuclear holocaust that could still happen, except probably not by the Russians against the US. The scenario of thieves, pirates and desperate ...

Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough to Live Forever

Ray Kurzweil, Terry Grossman

Plume, 2005

Starter Book for the rest of your life
I heard about this book on NPR a few years ago and decided to buy it. I enjoyed the book so much I bought 10 more paperbacks to give to friends and family. What is most interesting about this book and the genre of books I have since purchased is the life extension ...

A Voyage Long and Strange: Rediscovering the New World

Tony Horwitz

Henry Holt and Co., 2008

A fun way to learn America's "true" origin
The "truth" about America's origins is uncovered in interesting storytelling fashion. At times it reads like page turner. It might broaden a reader's viewpoint but it will make "little difference", because "...Myths didn't just trump fact; they helped create it." If ...

A Long and Uncertain Journey: The 27,000 Mile Voyage of Vasco Da Gama (Great Explorers)

Joan Elizabeth Goodman

A memorable and enjoyable "window in time"

Long Way Down: An Epic Journey by Motorcycle from Scotland to South Africa

Ewan McGregor, Charley Boorman

Atria, 2008

Great book
The first book was great and so was the series. This one is awesome as well. Very funny and a great read.

The Long Way

Bernard Moitessier

Sheridan House, 1995

Simply the Best
I'm a soloist- a singlehander. I really appreciate the way that being in tune with the sea and its environs is expressed in this book. So beautiful it almost brought me to tears. One feels the swell beneath while reading this book. The last third or so discusses ...

I'Ve Been Gone Far Too Long: Field Study Fiascoes and Expedition Disasters (Travel Literature Series)

RDR Books, 1996

Pleasantly, but not spectacularly, engaging
For anyone who harbors romantic notions of scientific fieldwork -- say, camping in a wilderness Eden with little more to do than observe wildlife and join in cultural exchanges with friendly natives -- this book offers a bucket of cold water. Researchers who have been ...

So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish

Douglas Adams

Random House Value Publishing, 1985

One of these books is not like the others...
Be forewarned: while this book is unmistakably a Hitchhiker's Guide book, it's also quite unique among the series. If you're in it only for the zany off-the-wall humor, well, you might not be disappointed because there is certainly plenty of that here, but Adams ...

Voyages and Travels of an Indian Interpreter and Trader
John Long

Cosimo Classics, 2007

His birthdate unknown, English clerk and opportunist JOHN LONG adjoined himself to a merchant traveling by sea to the Americas in 1768, for the purpose of his own edification.
