Description: In Punta Arenas Chile in November 1998, Karl Bushby set out on one of the most remarkable journeys of modern times. His plan is as simple as it is extraordinary: to walk up the Americas across the Bering Strait through Asia Russia and Europe back through the Channel Tunnel and returning to Britain in 2011. It is a journey of remarkable endurance - - 20 miles a day 3,000 miles a year 36,000 miles in total. By the time Karl returns he will have crossed four continents twenty - five countries a frozen sea six deserts and seven mountain ranges. But more than that unlike other similar expeditions Karl is attempting it single - handed: no huge support teams no large sponsorship deals this is the inspiring true story of a man facing remarkable odds - - and winning.
