<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A superbly photographed collection of more than 50 of the most spectacular, dangerous, and thoroughly memorable road trips from around the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>A superbly photographed collection of more than 50 of the most spectacular, dangerous, and thoroughly memorable road trips from around the world.</b></b> <p/><i>Remarkable Road Trips</i> continues the format established in the bestselling Remarkable series, which combines spectacular photography of popular and niche sporting venues from around the world. <p/>This break-out title features more than 50 of the world's most impressive and exciting drives, from the shortest, the Guoliang Tunnel hewn into the side of a cliff face in China, to the longest, the Dempster Highway in desolate stretches of Arctic Canada. Some can be driven in a day or less, others may take four or five; the variety of landscapes and terrain and even latitudes is huge. For the adrenaline rush, the old Nürburgring race circuit in Germany is included. <p/>Common to all the routes is a gallery of stunning photographs making them bucket-list destinations of not just petrolheads but those wishing to seek jaw-dropping scenery without packing hiking boots and a cagoule. They are all driveable--from the heartstopping Yungas Road of Death in Bolivia to the much more relaxing Route des Vins d'Alsace in eastern France--and each entry includes distances, start and finish locations, and recommended highlights and stopping off points along the way.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Edinburgh-based writer <b>Colin Salter</b> is the author of Jaguar: The Iconic Models That Defined The Marque<br/>(2017) and a man thoroughly at home on Scotland's great scenic route The North Coast 500. Another of his recent<br/>books, Men on the Moon: A History of Space Exploration (2015) will be of no use to him as he tackles the earth's<br/>epic drives.
