4.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating journey, 11 Mar 2003
By A Customer
I found this fascinating. It gave a real sense of being on the journey with all the bewilderment and changes of plan that would entail. I think it could have been more tightly edited and I had to follow Simon round with an atlas in my hand. However the part where he found traces of his father were genuinely moving.
