Faraway places with strange sounding names : the Penn Overland story

Davis, Gerald2013
Book
Until unrest and warfare shut them down in the late 70s, adventure bus journeys were all the rage with young travellers, headed to or from Europe and Britain. Penn Overland and other companies ran trips lasting many weeks over terrible roads, through deserts and across mountain ranges, via ancient cities and spectacular ruins. In this splendid illustrated book, Gerald Davis recreates a time that lives on in exciting memories, with travellers' tales, and Penn Overland memorabilia.
