With her initial animosity turning into curiosity as they breathlessly tracked dangerous beasts, Sue formed a surprising bond with their young female government-assigned game scout.

Five and a half decades of adventure travel, mostly by motorcycle, often alone or with his son. Now in his 70's, Tales from the Road: Volume 3 captures interesting and unusual vignettes from the author's adventure travels, starting, perhaps, when he was six-years-old (a solo, unauthorised three-mile journey by tricycle). Then, two epic journeys with his father and brother: walking 375 miles from Durban to Lourenco Marques when he was 12-years-old, and then, two years later, a 1,200-mile bicycle ride to Beira in Mocambique.
