This is a story of two young men, fresh from school, as they travel in search of knowledge about the world and themselves. Trying to reach Africa on motor scooters, they nearly circle the Mediterranean. The impulses and questions they have are archetypal: similar tales can be told by and of many others who have undertaken their own quests at the turning point between formal education and the decisions that will shape the rest of their lives.

Autorenporträt
Richard Bevis taught English at the American University of Beirut and the University of British Columbia for thirty-two years, during which he published several books, mostly on eighteenth-century English drama. Since retiring, he has published two books on the aesthetics of nature, and *Dudes and Savages,* a memoir of a summer in Yellowstone Park in 1957. *Wanderjahr* is based on his journals of travel in 1959-60. At present he lives in Vancouver, where he spends his time reading, writing, practicing music, supporting the arts and looking after an old house.
