Capturing the excitement of a nation as it became a driving force -- in more ways than one -- Driving Around America is the story of how America's romantic, restless spirit found its counterpart in the automobile. With Henry Ford's assembly lines lowering the price of cars, ordinary people began to travel where and when they pleased with a freedom never before known -- and the nation would never be the same. People moved farther from their work, creating suburbs; the demand for gasoline increased, spurring the growth of the petroleum industry; and individual members of families moved far from each other, changing the social fabric of the nation. From the auto's early beginnings to the commonplace use of cars in all aspects of life today, Driving Around America is a fascinating portrait of how America transformed as its citizens were on the move more and more.

Dramatic, disturbing, emotional, tender, and provocative, this novel tells the story of the plight of young lovers in 1940s wartime England, battling to survive separation and fear. Driving on the Left is based on the true love story of two young people living in England in the 1940's. The war, and the events that took place both before and after, are seen through the eyes of Neil and Jeannie, both of whom join the armed forces and serve during the war. Neil finds himself on a troopship destined for distant lands, while Jeannie confronts the terror in the skies over England--both risking body and spirit to serve a greater cause and hoping to find each other again. They are passionately drawn together, only to find themselves separated by war and overwhelmed by circumstantial problems at the war's end. Facing both physical and emotional distance, their stress and challenges appear insurmountable. Only time will tell if they are able to build a lasting happiness together.

Driving Around is the story of a group of high school friends trying to find their place on the popularity chart. Thanks to the fact that it takes place in the late nineties, social media doesn't play a role in this at all. They find a way to enjoy their time spent together, and the most often experienced adventure is driving around the small town where they all live. Maybe they would hang out in this one's house for most of Saturday night and that one's backyard for the majority of the following Friday evening, but you better believe that a portion of the time was spent simply driving around as a group throughout their area. This pack is made up of both males and females, so eventually, attraction to certain other clique members takes its place, which causes all of them to vastly evolve their overall relationships. Our lead character, Toby Anderson, helps to develop this group's friendship and works to keep them all tightly close to each other. As we progress, he is a major part of roughing up just how tight the group of friends ends up being. We get to experience many of their firsts and a fair amount of evolvements along the way. Significant parts of a teenager's life can greatly affect the future of their existence.

“The open road”—it’s a phrase that calls to mind a sense of freedom, adventure, and new possibilities that make driving one of our most liberating activities. In Drive, Iain Borden explores the way driving allows us to encounter landscapes and cities around the world. He takes particular notice of how driving is portrayed in film from America to Europe to Asia and from Hollywood to the avant-garde, covering over a century of history and referencing hundreds of movies. From the dusty landscapes of The Grapes of Wrath to the city streets of The Italian Job; from the aesthetic delights of Rain Man and Traffic to the existential musings of Thelma and Louise and Vanishing Point;from the freeway pleasures of Radio On and London Orbital to the high-speed dangers of Crash, Bullitt, and C’était un Rendezvous; this book shows how driving with different speeds, cars, roads, and cities provides experiences and challenges beyond compare. Borden concludes that as an integral part of modern life, car driving is something to be celebrated and even encouraged, making Drive a timely riposte to anti-car attitudes, and those blind to the richness of life behind the wheel.

Every year, Top Gear dispatches correspondents to cover many serious stories around the world. Wherever they go, they ask tough questions and leave no stone unturned in search of the cold, hard truth. Questions such as: Is it possible to drive a Ferrari up a Scottish ski slope? Exactly how far can you drive a bulldozer across the Antarctic before it falls down a big crack? And what happens when you drive a small 4X4 up a volcano, during an earthquake, with a high chance of eruption? The answers to all of the above – and more – can be found in Top Gear Top Drives, a new book featuring Top Gear’s best adventures, neatly arranged in precise geographic order: top, middle and bottom. These are not Sunday drives to country pubs. You will not find any mentions of freshly cut grass and picnics under oak trees. In fact, you are more likely to encounter roadside landmines and a pack of Chilean llamas with a relaxed approach to personal hygiene. Of course you will also find supercars on winding mountain passes, but this book goes much further, bringing you the most unusual combinations of car and tarmac – or lack of it – from across our planet. All of which are accompanied by a surprisingly useful collection of travel tips, featuring such useful advice as when to go, what the weather’s like and where to find a reasonably priced beer. Like any classic travel guide, you really shouldn’t leave home without it. Unless you write down the really important bits, in which case you’ll probably be OK.

Road Trip: A Practical Manual is aimed at inspiring readers to take a road trip, while providing practical advice to help them to do so. Whether looking at popping over to Europe for a quick circuit, hankering to drive the classic routes of North America, or even aiming to cover a clutch of African countries, there is something for everyone. Importantly, every road trip featured is possible without specialist equipment and, indeed, each and every trip could possibly be completed in a hire car – though for a select few a four-wheel drive hire vehicle would be advisable. The author offers a wealth of advice from his experience taking road trips around the world. From hiring cars and paperwork, to what to take, driving laws, crossing borders and emergencies, the engaging text aims to give the reader confidence to fulfill his/her dreams. The second part of the book provides a wide range of route suggestions, based on the author’s own experiences on six continents. Road Trip: A Practical Manual is a fascinating guide, which will, hopefully, inspire readers to turn their independent travel dreams into reality.
