'Trevelyan Quest Edwards wore out two pairs of boots in five months. He walked THRU the Appalachian Trail of 2,184 miles northwards from Atlanta, Georgia to Mt Katahdin in Maine (USA). Quest is his real middle name. A Darwin based, Australian life-saver and ex-cartographer, 'Walkabout' was the Trail name he was given. Trail Magic shares his minimalist (minus digital devices) philosophy. Travelling light is the way to go. At one stage, he nearly gave up, but the support of friends kept him going. Enjoy the scenery, wildlife and friendly Trail Magic helping of strangers, to whom he dedicates this book.' (Publisher's blurb)

'Many twenty- and thirty-somethings intend to "do" an extreme adventure, somewhere exotic, but most just dream or join the coach tour. Trevelyan Edwards dared to do, and now he tells the story of his experience.
'Cycling Solo: Ireland to Istanbul explores five months of cycling solo across Europe. From Ireland to Istanbul via the UK, France, Germany, the Swiss Alps, Serbia, Bulgaria, Hungary and Turkey, with kilometres of unforgettable sites and stories in between, this is a journey worth sharing, particularly when told with such candour.'
