"This is a quite extraordinary book which tells, 
graphically, the story of a quite extraordinary 
achievement.  Nick Baldock, in support of the 
Josie Russell fund, actually did just what the
title says: he ran across America.

"This is an almost unimaginable feat of courage 
and endurance, and only a handful of people 
have achieved it.  To put it in its proper 
perspective, more people have probably climbed 
Mount Everest than have run across America.

 


 


"Baldock's account does not make light of the 
hardship and difficulty he encountered - but, 
somehow, we share his absolute faith in his 
own possibilities.  He is an observant 
traveller - if something so gruelling can be 
considered travelling - and his comments 
are trenchant and not without humour.

Besides being the story of this extraordinary 
run, and an unforgettable window into the 
mind of an extreme athlete, this is a story 
of love: Baldock's for his daughter Lauren and,
through her, for Josie.  It is inspiring and 
also witty, personal and highly readable."
