Book description
Forget backpacking – feet were made for pushing pedals. Here, Jeremy Clarkson makes a world tour using whatever pice of indigenous transport can save him from self-propulsion. Travelling to Cuba, Iceland, India, the USA and Italy among others, Clarkson takes a look at motoring habits around the globe with his usual stash of straight-talking wit.
– For instance, why is that Italians are more interested in looking good than looking where they’re going?
– Why do Indians crash a lot?
– How can an Arab describe himself as "not a rich man" with four of the world’s most expensive cars on his drive?
– And why have the otherwise neutral Swiss declared war on the car?
So grab your passport and strap yourself in, as Clarkson sets off on a global adventure comprising of asphalt, mud, air and water to discover just what it is that makes our motorworld tick over.
