About the Book
Many people talk about leaving their conventional lives and following a dream -- sailing around the world, moving to the wilderness, or living on a romantic island. The author did this 3 times! In Volkswagen campers he and his wife, Lynette, set out to see the world -- North and South America, Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia.
Continental Drifting is a travel story like no other. The author grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania, rode a football scholarship to Harvard and forged a successful business career. All the while he had a dream- to see the world up close and personal. During a 25-year period, not once but 3 times, Mr. Wile quit his job and with his family embarked on transcontinental odysseys.
Follow the Wiles on their world-wide adventures exploring other cultures, battling adversity, touring ancient ruins, observing breathtaking natural beauty and home-schooling their children. It won't be long before you'll be ready to begin following your own dream. Said Warren Adler, author of The War of the Roses<, Random Hearts/i> and twenty-five other novels published in most languages of the world: "This is the story of one manâs passion to make every second of lifeâs journey count for something. With good humor, courage and an intrepid sense of high adventure and curiosity, he eschews the trappings of traditional success and takes his family on a world tour in a camper. What this family learns about the human condition will inspire and entertain those of us who merely fantasize about such adventures."
The book includes a photo CD-ROM disk of over 400 photographs with captions from the author's travels. 6" x 9", 449 pages.
