In 1996, Tom Fremantle began an epic journey cycling from
Swanbourne, England to Swanbourne, Australia, following in the footsteps of
his ancestor, Captain Charles, founder of Fremantle port. His route led him
through twenty countries, including Iran, Afghanistan, Tibet and Cambodia,
and Johnny Ginger's Last Ride is his awe-inspiring and amusing account of
his protracted travels.
"A writer who commands fascinated attention" John Mortimer
"Johnny Ginger's Last is an extraordinary story told with plenty of zing and
good humour" The Australian
"An extraordinary achievement....a diverting commentary on the highways and,
more often, byways of three continents" Daily Telegraph
