Some times moving, never predictable and always entertaining, The Road To Muckle Flugga is a thoroughly enjoyable read that will make you gasp and grin.

'The great affair is to move,' said Robert Louis Stevenson. His words are echoed in this collection of stories by Phil Llewellin, an award-winning writer who roamed the world from the Arctic Circle to Patagonia, driving in everything from modern and classic cars to powerful American trucks. Meticulously researched and packed with information, humour and interesting photographs, The Road to Muckle Flugga spans five continents and proves that exploring in anything from four to 18 wheels can be fun - and dangerous. This book, which received high critical acclaim when first published in hardback in 2004, chronicles some of his most exciting journeys.

The late Phil Llewellin, described by Octane magazine as 'motoring's own Bill Bryson', was an award-winning writer whose adventures enthralled readers of leading magazines and newspapers worldwide. His two million motoring miles - in everything from classic cars to powerful American trucks - took him to wild places like Afghanistan, China, Sudan, Alaska and Borneo. He went to the end of the world's southernmost road in Tierra del Fuego and, of course, to Muckle Flugga, the northernmost point of the British Isles. Now in paperback, this highly readable book chronicles some of his most exciting journeys.

Author: Phil Llewellin, who died in 2005, was an award-winning writer whose adventures enthralled readers of leading magazines and newspapers worldwide.
