Product Description
Product Description
"Adventures in Yellow" is a heart-warming, humorous and poignant account of an epic 35,500-mile journey through the Americas. Abandoning schedules and all sense of time, husband and wife team, Norman and Maggie Magowan, take to their motorcycles and embark on a life-changing adventure. Relishing the role of modern-day drifters, their eyes may be firmly on the terrain, but their ears are ever poised for a good yarn along the way. Their story, as they say in their Northern Irish homeland, is "a cracker"! "Leprechauns in Latin America" covers the South American leg of this incredible journey. It begins chasing volcanoes in Chile down to the end of the world. While accident and misfortune dog the early days of the trip, these episodes ultimately turn to advantage and triumph as the metronome to this fantastic adventure is set. Up on the Altiplano they flee strike-ravaged La Paz, a city caught in the grip of Bolivia's Gas War, only to run into a real-life lynch-mob on the shores of Lake Titicaca. The rich tapestry of this South American sojourn is stitched with romances involving a little Cowboy, the miracles of an un-sainted desert heroine and a ghastly murder in the Galapagos. Told with boundless wit and warmth, this is a book that will make you want to saddle up and get travelling. But if that isn't possible, let Norman's soaring prose transport you there regardless. So sit back and enjoy the craic! Adventures in Yellow concludes in "Leprechauns to Alaska"

This is an excellent book. I am no biker yet the book was still a fantastic read. Norman has managed to produce a really interesting book with a good good dose of humour and just the right amount of history/facts regading the places they visit. A really good book that, on completion sent me straight to his second book - a follow on from this one, Leprechauns in Alaska, which was equally as good.
highly recommend this book - it was fab!!!!

A good read full of bikers stuff, history and facts about the countries travelled. This is not just a bikers book it is a book that will raise more questions than it answers - particularly personal ones
Format:Paperback
What a brilliant book!
I can't recommend it highly enough - it's a long time since I have enjoyed a book so much. It is beautifully written with the author managing to bring his trip to life through his wonderfully descriptive narrative and easy-reading style. I almost feel as though I was on the journey with them. It is heart-warming, funny and inspiring. I suggest that you buy it now and settle down for an amazing journey through South America ... I cant wait to get the next book and experience the joys of Alaska! Thank you to the author for sharing his experiences with the world!
