Hi there, can any of you guys recommend a good overland expedition book to read ?. I could do with dreaming about having the balls to do it whilst laid under a sun brollie on my package holiday. The kind were a couple sell up, buy a 110, and travel the world type thing?. Thanks in advance.
 
Im not a huge fan of Chris Scott's writing. It is also more of a guidebook than an overland account.

here is an alternative: Tom Sheppard - Four by four driving techniques and vehicle expedition driving

If you want ' a couple selling everything and driving their 90+trailer from the UK across Russia to Vladivostok and NE Siberia' then you could follow our blog ;)

other books would be:

1st overland First Overland: London-Singapore by Land Rover: Amazon.co.uk: Sir David Attenborough, Tim Slessor, Antony Barrington Brown: Books

In search of Will Carling http://www.amazon.co.uk/Search-Will...=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1363192203&sr=1-1

although I did get bored of this one quite quickly.

There are a lot of others, not only Land Rover ones. Ted Simon for example:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Jupiters-Tr...=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1363192399&sr=1-1

Lois Price: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lois-Loose-...r_1_11?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1363192426&sr=1-11

Mondo Enduro: Around the World Adventure on Two Wheels - 40 Countries in 405 Days: Amazon.co.uk: Austin Vince: Books

There are plenty more if you go to Waterstones and spend a few hours browsing... Enough to make you do what we have done!
