What’s at the centre of North America? Did pterodactyls once terrorise the Wild West? Why was an atomic bomb dropped on a family in South Carolina? And where can you tuck into a testicle festival?
Paul Smith embarks on journey where rest and relaxation is the only option; a train journey across the United States to see his family. But curiosity gets the better of Paul, and he decides to keep going. And going.
Tales From the Edge of America is a unique adventure along coasts and borders to the four corners of mainland USA: from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from Canada to Mexico, Paul explores several of the world’s greatest cities – and finds himself in plenty more you’ve never heard of.
He encounters the Abominable Snowman in Maine, glugs illegal moonshine in Charleston, walks the lost neighbourhoods of New Orleans and finds himself alone in the New Mexico desert. He befriends the characters who prefer the unburdened commute by Amtrak train over the brevity of air travel, all of whom have their own tales to tell.
10,000 miles, 31 states, no turning back – Tales From the Edge of America is a unique pilgrimage around the USA that never sits still.
Tales From the Edge of America is exclusive to Kindle and published in two halves. Part 2 will be available in July 2013.
