" ...When I arrived at New York I purchased a motor-cycle and set out to cross the continent to the Pacific, and I have it on the best authority that this was the first time an Englishman had ever accomplished the trip on a motor-cycle.In the following pages I have endeavoured to portray America and Americans exactly as I found them and as they appealed to me. If at times I perchance may give offence to any who are lovers of all and anything American, I do it without intent. Suffice it to say that before I went I had the highest opinion of anything that came from that worthy country, so that it cannot be claimed that I am one of those " Pro-British-every- time " individuals who delight in criticizing other countries and other peoples in order to gratify their own sense of national or other superiority."RAF Captain Charles Kenilworth Shepherd's account of riding his motorcycle across the U.S. in 1919.

A veteran of World War I, British RAF Captain C.K. Shepherd arrived in New York in June 1919, bought a top-of-the-line Henderson four-cylinder motorcycle, and headed west on a solo cross-country adventure to see America, arriving in San Francisco two months later. Having completed his voyage, he sold his beloved motorcycle, dubbed "Lizzie," on the street in San Francisco and then made his way back to his home in Birmingham, England. Three years later, he wrote Across America by Motor-Cycle--a memoir and travelogue that has become a motorcycle history classic. This book is now in the public domain and has been reprinted and made electronically available by others. However, all other known print reproductions contain low-quality images from the original book and the electronic versions all have numerous typographical errors apparently caused by errors in optical character recognition.This print version has been painstakingly reset and proofread, and all images re-scanned from an original print of the book or the original photographs to present the original book as it was first published in the highest quality possible.The photograph on the cover is from C.K. Shepherd's personal collection. It was taken in front of the Henderson agent in Kansas City, Missouri, on July 11, 1919. Pictured is C.K. Shepherd and the Henderson agent, Arthur Stephens.For more information, please visit:http://acrossamericabymotorcycle.comMark L. Hunnibell

NEW YORK TIMES, USA TODAY, and PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER “Full of valuable insights to guide you.”—WILL SMITH “Thoughtful and life-affirming . . . a must-read.”—TONY ROBBINS “This book will put you back in charge of your own life.”—TOM BRADY A new perspective on the overused and misunderstood concept of “karma” that offers the key to happiness and enlightenment, from the world-renowned spiritual master Sadhguru. What is karma? Most people understand karma as a balance sheet of good and bad deeds, virtues and sins. The mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions. In reality, karma has nothing to do with reward and punishment. Karma simply means action: your action, your responsibility. It isn’t some external system of crime and punishment, but an internal cycle generated by you. Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you. Over time, it’s possible to become ensnared by your own unconscious patterns of behavior. In Karma, Sadhguru seeks to put you back in the driver’s seat, turning you from a terror-struck passenger to a confident driver navigating the course of your own destiny. By living consciously and fully inhabiting each moment, you can free yourself from the cycle. Karma is an exploration and a manual, restoring our understanding of karma to its original potential for freedom and empowerment instead of a source of entanglement. Through Sadhguru’s teachings, you will learn how to live intelligently and joyfully in a challenging world.

Follow along on a life changing ride on a motorcycle names Marilyn. See what it's really like to spend a month or more on the Trans-America Trail. Read what no one tells you about life on the road. Before any story is told, there must be a reason. Some reasons are simple. The walk to the mail box for example. It's a very short story with a reason and a purpose. This story is longer. It's reasons and purpose more complicated. But in the end, it's as simple as wondering what's in that box. The one just over the next horizon. Three years before I set off on a solo ride across America on a motorcycle named Marilyn, I sat in the basement of a typical suburban house. All of the lights were out. No one was home except myself. Had there been, I would have likely put on a stiff upper lip and pretended to be fine. Except I wasn't. Guttural animal like sounds escaped my body in a painful murmur that surely was not my own. It could not have been because I had never heard that voice before. Waves of primordial intonations rose and fell. There was no escape. There was no place to hide. I learned that when you cry lying on your back that you get tears in your ears. I learned that all of the control that I thought I had was an illusion. I buried myself deeper into a corner trying to fence off whatever was attacking my core. Anyone witnessing this pitiful scene would have surely thought it was some kind of reenacted Hollywood drug induced nightmare. It was not. No alcohol was involved. No drug of any kind. It was worse than either. Worse because there was nothing from which to withdraw. Or was there? What does all of this have to do with riding a motorcycle along the Trans-America Trail. Nothing. And Everything. Read on to connect the metaphorical dots of one rider's inner journey from that dark basement to the shining ocean of the Oregon coastline.
