Kompletní popis

Spanning more than fifty years of ambitious and wild endeavors, Along the Way chronicles John Casey's most peculiar addiction, that of an adrenaline junky, who can never resist a challenge. Here we see Casey taking part in a twenty-six-day Outward Bound course in Maine during the dead of winter; being pinned by a two-hundred-pound judo instructor; leading a lost couple on a yacht through the rocky waterways of Narragansett Bay by a simple rowboat; and completing--on his seventieth birthday--a 70K marathon of his own devising that included rowing, bicycling, skating, dog walking, and rollerblading. Be it a preoccupation with health or just an indomitably playful sense of adventure, John Casey's insatiable drive is an inspiration to us all and Along the Way is a joyful self-portrait of a writer who loves going to extremes, just to find out what it's like once he gets there.
