| Publisher Description: Most long distance travelers carry something they depend on, their anchor, their foundation. For some it is their faith in God, others dig down into their inner depths. Some count on their physical conditioning, family, friends, or providence. On Amos's four thousand five hundred mile bicycle trip across these United States, three things served as his sustenance: Beer, Ice cream, and Benevolence. In the summer approaching his 55th birthday, Amos embarked on a 4,500 mile, self-supported, solo bicycle ride from his home in Vermont. He had absolutely no idea what lay ahead. On his westward journey he encountered innumerable acts of kindness, was gifted countless beers, met unanticipated adversity and was blessed repeatedly with hospitality, good will and prayers. This is the story of his journey and the people he met. |
