At 52, Peter Millar embarks on a journey across the U.S. using the remnants of the railroad, exploring the landscapes and connecting with locals to uncover their stories and concerns. His travels challenge stereotypes and offer a fresh perspective on America, all while navigating a diminished rail network. With a blend of wit and keen observation reminiscent of Bill Bryson and Paul Theroux, this narrative appeals to Britons seeking deeper insights into American culture and to Americans curious about their own country, as well as railway enthusiasts.
