It was a severe case of hippy envy that impelled Peter Moore to travel home from London to Sydney without ever stepping on an aeroplane.  Hippies had the best music, the best drugs, but most of all they had the best trips.

With woefully inadequate funds and little hope of actually making it through such notorious hotspots as the Balkans, Iran and Afghanistan, Peter - never one to err on the side of caution - followed the trail overland to the East over the next eight months and through 25 countries.  It would prove to be a journey of exhilarating highs and, on occasion, frustrating lows, of diverse experiences - including the world's most expensive disco (in Albania), the bombed-out villages of Croatia, the opium fields of Laos, student riots in Jakarta, an all-night beach rave in Thailand - and memorable encounters with a wonderful cast of often eccentric, at times exasperating and, once in a while, overly amorous characters.

Soft cover, good condition.  The cover shows very minor signs of wear.
