Daryl Farmer, at the time a twenty-year-old two-time college dropout, did what lost men have so often done in America: he headed west. Twenty years later & seventy pounds heavier, with the yellowing journals from that transformative five-thous&-mile bicycle trek in his pack, Farmer set out to retrace his path. This is his story of pursuing that distant summer & that distant dream of home, where home is endless space, a roof of big sky, & a bed of dry earth. Just as the years altered the man, so, too, have they altered the West, & Farmer`s second journey affords a unique perspective on these changes
- as well as on what lasts. Whether caught in a Colorado snowstorm or braving a Yellowstone herd of bison, kayaking with orcas in Puget Sound, trading ninja moves with a homeless man in San Francisco, or getting the lowdown on aliens on Nevada`s Extraterrestrial Highway, Farmer charts a moving landscape of people & places. This is the West where the natural world & personal character are inextricably linked, & where one man`s ride into the past & present takes us to the heart of that ever-evolving connection.
