"Det er en myte, at solen altid skinner i Provence, som den nobelprisbelønnede digter Fréderic Mistral kaldte for solens rige. Det er en myte, at der ikke kan falde sne i et subtropisk klima, og at man på disse breddegrader ikke risikerer at opleve en kulde, som bider i kinder og næse. Hvis man vil elske Provence, denne mangfoldige sydfranske provins, må man lære også at elske eller i det mindste tolerere et klima, som undertiden kan være mere omskifteligt og lunefuldt, end man forestiller sig.

"Jeg har valgt at skrive om de af mine rejser, som har haft med nogle af verdenshistoriens (og pressehistoriens) mysterier at gøre, store såvel som små. Vi drages mod det ukendte, mod det mystiske, som ulve efter bytte. Havde man fortalt mig, at jeg skulle få mulighed for at undersøge disse og andre mysterier på stederne, hvor de havde udspillet sig, ville det have forekommet mig lige så usandsynligt, som at menneskene nogensinde skulle kunne lande på månen.

"Vi sneg os over til det centrale tempel, hvor vi fandt tunneller, der var gravet ind under anlægget. Med kroppen klemt ned i et hul, hvor blodtørstige vampyrflagermus fløj rundt om mine ben, var vi nær blevet opdaget, da jeg var nødt til at råbe efter hjælp." I 1986 og 1988 drog Christian Lygum Christensen som leder af ekspeditioner ind i Guatemalas jungleområder for at udforske Mayaindianernes tempelbyer. Efter hårde strabadser fandt man frem til hidtil ukendte tempelbyer og mayagrotter.

My own long experience of African hunting told me at once that every word in this thrilling narrative was absolutely true. Nay more: I knew that the author had told his story in a most modest manner, laying but little stress on the dangers he had run when sitting up at nights to try and compass the death of the terrible man-eaters, especially on that one occasion when whilst watching from a very light scaffolding, supported only by four rickety poles, he was himself stalked by one of the dread beasts.

Most people would regard it as irresponsible madness for a father to take his 17-year-old son, riding old and somewhat worn-out XT500 motorcycles, on a four-month ride across Africa. But Lawrence Bansby did. Lawrence and his son Gareth set off on their old but bulletproof XT500s with a handful of spare parts, very little money, and the three Michelin maps that cover Africa. The plan was to travel north from their home in Natal, South Africa, then west through Zaire, the Central African Republic, Nigeria, Niger, and, finally, across the Sahara through Algeria, but it was not to be.

Stu Nugent was never a good candidate for a round-the-world cycling trip. He was, and remains, a coward. In a flash of uncharacteristic daring, he attempted to cycle the Northern Silk Road, from Shanghai to Europe. He failed. He failed dramatically. Against a backdrop of the world's most staggering, awe-inspiring landscapes, he was forced to smoke opium at gunpoint, attacked by a snake in a remote Kyrgyz river, robbed at gunpoint by the police, and eventually imprisoned in anonymous jail somewhere on the Kazakh steppe. How did it all go so wrong?
