Description
No-one has ever sailed an English narrowboat in the USA before...
for reasons that become clear as Terry and Monica Darlington and their board of the USA whippet Jim sail down the little-known Eastern Seaboard - including thirty-mile sea crossings, blasting heat, tornadoes, alligators, and the walking dead...
But the real danger comes from the Good Ole Boys and Girls of the Deep South waiting along the shore. Captains and planters, heroes and drunks, dancing dicks and beautiful spies all want to meet the Brits on their painted boat and their thin dog and take them home and party them to death.
Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida - lost arcadias, shining sounds, and incomparable cities - a thousand miles unfold at six miles an hour on a hilarious, dangerous and always surprising
journey through a wonderland.ISBN:9780553818161
