Join Pump Up the Volume, the OCWW member book club for a discussion of OVERLAND, Caryn Green's adventure travel memoir.
Tune in and turn on to a digitally-remastered blast from the past that recalls the dangers and delights of backpacking solo around the globe in the Informationless Age. Set on the path thousands of truth seekers followed in the 60s and 70s in search of enlightenment, cheap thrills and free love, against a dazzling backdrop of geographic and cultural diversity, this rollicking yet reflective read is your escape to another time and place - where the ultimate measure of cool wasn't where you were from, but how far you'd come.
