Vehicle Dependent Expedition Guide

[p m]

LOL
fear not, this book was printed in English; if this one isn't immediately available, there are others (I checked).
But seriously, I think you'd appreciate these guys' travels. They've covered all of the world (Africa, Americas, and Asia) between 1948 and 1954 in a rear-wheel-drive Tatra, with air-cooled V8 in the back.
Last year in Peru, I enjoyed seeing the landmarks I've seen in their books ias a small kid. On an emotional scale, it is like Joy Adamson and Land Rovers.

It does sound like something I'd like to read, then.

That's the sort of travel story that can hold my interest. If it's as you say it is, I can see why it would have stuck in your mind.

Cheers,

There was a new edition about to come out about a year ago, was still pricy; but, I found it on Amazon.uk for *cheap*, so I pre-ordered it. Was delayed. Then delayed again. Eventually, they canceled the order, said they can't get them. I was bummed; I wanted a copy, but, not at crazy-money prices.

I still get emails from Amazon.uk saying "since you ordered 'Vehicle Dependent', you might like..." ; I have an urge to email 'em back saying "but I didn't get it!".

Well, I received it, and it was in the condition advertised.

As soon as I opened it and started leafing around, I was happy that I bought it, and the idea of three hundred bucks just floated away.

Worth every penny to have it back.

Cheers,
