A unique travel book; a motorcycle diary about one man's journey of self-discovery in deepest Africa

Jonny Bealby was devastated when his fiancee Melanie died unexpectedly while they were travelling in Kashmir. Two years later, still heartbroken and utterly disillusioned, he took on the challenge of a lifetime. Setting out with only his motorbike for company, he began a daring and dangerous journey around the African continent in a desperate attempt to unearth some meaning in his life. Bittersweet, bold and beautifully told, Running with the Moon is a tale of true love and loss, of exploration, adventure and courage.

Reviews for Running With The Moon

One of the best travel books I've read. * GQ * An intriguing and poignant record of one man's journey. * Impact * Touching and honest. * Traveller * Bealby handles this tragic tale with endearing honesty and tenderness. It is the romantic's naivety, not to mention his irrepressible energy, optimism and courage, which- charm the reader. * Daily Telegraph * One of Britain's sexiest authors * Marie Claire *
