Book Overview
The Improbable Voyage is the astonishing account of TRistan Jones' 2,307 mile voyage across Europe in Outward Leg. Continuing his round-the-world journey, Tristan traveled from the North Sea to the Black Sea via the rivers Rhine and Danube. Tristan welcomed each difficulty as a challenge to be met and overcome. Battling ice and cold, life-threatening rapids and narrow defiles, German bureaucrats and Romanian frontier police, Tristan made his way through eight countries and emerged triumphant, if battered, bruised and penniless, at the Black Sea. Tristan gives us a vivid glimpse of the quality of life along Europe's oldest water routes and behind the Iron Curtain. This description may be from another edition of this product.

By Thriftbooks.com User,
Tristan's stories are sometimes a stretch of the imagination to visualize for some modern day river adventurers. Perhaps that is because of his disdain for commercialization of the freedom available from living on the water, but he was certainly a direct person and capable of putting forth his always fair views. This story inspires one to take the same path on the Rhein/Danube voyage which is no longer quite so improbable...
