In the long hot summer of '88, the author packed up his motorcycle and pulled out of the garage with no destination or return date in mind. The year 1988 would prove to be the worst drought since the dustbowl of the 1930s. Yellowstone would burn, Ronald Reagan would shake his fist at the Evil Empire, and the author, oblivious to it all, hit the road and never looked back. That trip would consume the entire summer, logging over 12,000 miles from sea to sea and back. Alone in the Wind is the account of that trip.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

I was in Army Basic Training in Ft Jackson, SC when the author was traveling (baking) across the US on his bike. His vivid recollections of how hot it was that summer brought back many memories of that time. A great listen, written with honest recollection and shared with integrity. I hope the author gets more of his work on audio.

Fantastic
