Starting in the pastel skies of the Florida Keys, join award-winning author, tech entrepreneur, and British immigrant to America James Anthony as he meanders the backroads of North America. He travels through offbeat towns, dust bowls, tallgrass prairies, and mountain passes, all the way to the Arctic Ocean, arriving just before freeze-up.

Dodging burly wildlife keen to take a bite out of him, he meets the quirky, good-hearted folk of North America’s backwaters, learning how Britain influenced the continent’s history, much of it painfully unsavory.
