ONLY PLANET: A FLIGHT-FREE ADVENTURE AROUND THE WORLD

Book ID/图书代码： 06580014B70069

English Summary/英文概要： In an inspirational tale of global adventure, Ed Gillespie takes anything but a plane to circumnavigate the world.

From cargo ships to camels, hitch-hiking to hovercrafts, Ed proves that getting there really is half the fun. Follow his epic tale, across shamanic lakes, Mongolian deserts and jungle volcanoes. Meet grizzled sea-dogs and drunken smugglers, billions of butterflies and peckish pythons.

This modern world fable is about the exhilaration of taking it slow, and about rediscovering hope for humanity and for the planet we all share.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： Ed Gillespie在全球探险的励志故事中，仅用一架飞机来环游世界。

从货轮到骆驼，从搭便车远足到气垫船，Ed证明了到达目的地只是乐趣的一半。跟随他这史诗般的故事，穿越萨满湖泊，蒙古沙漠和丛林火山。见到灰色的海狗和酗酒的走私贩，数十亿的蝴蝶和饿蟒。

这个现实世界的寓言故事，关乎放慢速度的愉悦，关乎重新发现人性和我们共处的星球的希望。(LNL)
