Neil Pearts travel memoir of thoughts, observations, and experiences as he cycles through West Africa, reveals the subtle, yet powerful writing style. As he describes his extraordinary journey and his experiences from the pains of dysentery, to a confrontation with an armed soldier, to navigating dirt roads off the beaten path he reveals his own emotional landscape, and along the way, the different masks that he discovers he wears.
"Peart's writing is lyrical and his tale poignant, fully capturing an extraordinary journey, both as a travel adventure and as memoir." --"Library Journal" on "Ghost Rider"
Neil Peart is the drummer and lyricist for the rock band Rush and the author of "Ghost Rider." He lives in Santa Monica, California.
