phantom Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hi folks i have always loved travel books and normally road trips so I am trying to compile a list of either novels or travel writing about journeys in motorhomes and campervans rather than the factual information stuff. Can anyone add to the list? I have already read: Canary coloured cart by Christina Hardyment - a European journey about storybook sites Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck Precious Times by ERica James Dizzy by Cathy Cassidy (junior) i have just found Magic Bus by Rory MacLean Across America with the Boys by Matthew Collins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J9withdogs Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Great idea! I just typed 'campervan' and 'motorhome' into Amazon's book search facility & came up with some stunners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeti Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Mathew Collins has also written a similar book about a trip across Canada with a surrogate Granny. Overland and beyond by Johnathon and Theresa Hewitt. The road to India by John Prendergast The last 2 are now probably out of print but may be available on the s/h market.
