Praise for The Last Overland:
"This is a fabulous adventure - reckless, insanely ambitious and filled with sweat, tears and laughter: irresistible reading. An immense challenge and a thrilling true story." - Joanna Lumley
"A fantastic piece of travel writing set to become a classic of the genre. The Last Overland is an epic journey, epitomising the spirit of the great modern adventure." - Levison Wood
"A book not only for adventurous hearts who want to seize life, but for those who want to interrogate what it is to be human." - Keggie Carew
"Bescoby weaves travel, adventure, history and the contemporary together like no one else." - Dan Snow
"If you thought the Age of Adventure was over, think again. Told with verve, passion, and above all a huge amount of fun, this is the real thing. Bescoby is a terrific travelling companion, full of insight, sharp observation and enviable sangfroid." - Michael Wood
"Elegant, wry, indomitable, self-deprecating - a splendid, sparkling addition to expeditions and to travel writing." - Rory Stewart
