Kickstart reviewed Across America by Motor-cycle by C. K. Shepherd
Cyril Shepard's account of riding his motorcycle across the U.S. in 1919.
Across America in the Old Days
5 stars
Before highways, when American roads were pretty much just mud, a British flyer straight out of hospital after WWI decided to cross America on a motorcycle in the summer of 1919. A truly foolhardy plan at the time as the book makes abundantly, and entertainingly, very clear. Highly recommended for those who appreciate the prose of non-literary writers.
