Description

On holiday in India in 1983, girls' school headmistress Anne Mustoe saw a solitary European cyclist pedalling across the Great Thar Desert. Although no cyclist herself, she was seized with the desire to follow his example. Four years later, at the age of 54, she gave up her job, bought a bicycle and set off around the world. She cycled through Europe, India, Thailand and Malaysia, and then from the Far East to the USA - a journey of 12,000 miles that lasted 15 months. Travelling alone, she faced physical hardship and occasional danger, but she also met an astonishing range of people and discoverd an exhilarating spirit of mutual trust and generosity.

Author Biography:

Anne Mustoe read Classics at Cambridge and was the headmistress of a girls' school in Suffolk until 1987, when she left her job and embarked on her first solo journey around the world by bicycle. She is an established travel writer with a substantial following who lectures regularly on her adventures.
