Title: Falling Uphill
Description: "In one week, Scott Stoll lost his job, his best friend, his girlfriendand his confidence. Disillusioned with society, full of angst, a lostand wandering soul with nothing left to lose, Stoll asked himself aquestion: "If I only have one life, one chance, if I could do anything,what would I do?"  His answer resulted in a 4 year and 25,742mile odyssey around the world by bicycle, seeking answers to the greatmysteries of life, vowing to find happiness or die trying. The questwasn't easy. He was imprisoned, held hostage, mugged, run over,suspected of terrorism, accused of espionage, trampled, diseased,heartbroken -- he nearly died a dozen times. But more importantly, healso discovered the wonders of the world, kindness among strangers, themeaning of life, peace, love and -- Yes! -- happiness, in the mostunlikely places.  Re-live and re-imagine a journey around theworld on a bicycle as a man stumbles through moments of pure survivaland moments of pure enlightenment."--Page 4 of cover.
