Description
Overland 1970 is a vivid recreation of the epic journey along 'The Hippie Trail', from London to Nepal. In this account, author David Shirreff draws on his own experiences driving the route multiple times, capturing the challenges and stunning landscapes that travellers encountered.
The book focuses on what lies at the heart of these journeys: the relationships between the travellers themselves. As they spent hours confined in a Land Rover, alliances formed and rivalries blossomed, with moments of rapture and introspection punctuating their journey.
