December 26, 2001: This is a funny, interesting, well-written book concerning a Guiness world-record setting road trip from hell. All aspects are discussed including obtaining sponsorship, dealing with the records people, dealing with customs and other bureaucrats, and shipping details, but it never becomes boring. I've lent my copy to at least five people and they've all loved it. It's just a story of two guys who drove non-stop across two continents in a little under a month; read it, you'll love it and wish you could have been there.
