Zeke's Guide to Travel and Life is a true adventure travel book of wanderlust and discovery that takes readers on unforgettable hiking, backpacking, and local transport treks to exotic cultural locations in China and the Himalayas in Tibet. Based on author C. Bowden's fifty years as an adventurer and world traveler, Zeke's Guide provides fellow thrill-seekers and explorers an authentic immersion into China and Tibet's ancient cultures and beautiful landscapes, as the author and his careless friend and intrepid travel writer named Zeke embark together on many astonishing sightseeing excursions deep into the SE Asian heartland on foot, bicycle... and even on rural train and back-road bus transfers. Written in a biographical perspective that allows for light humor and contemplation in between exciting experiences, like avoiding Chinese bandits and hiking and camping with ponies on the high mountain trails in Minyok Gongkar, Tibet, Zeke's Guide to Travel and Life: China and Tibet is an exceptional travel book that tells of a journey fueled by unabated curiosity; and a need to see, hear, and feel, close up and firsthand. It features direct experiences undimmed by expectations or old assumptions. This unique Tibet and China travel guide is itself a fascinating realm in which only the truly adventurous are invited to travel. "The river Jinsha (upper Yangtze) ran beside his train: by giant agave-like plants along semiarid banks, above copper water; with extensive sandbars, gravel banks, and beaches. Rice paddies lay on alternate sides, in each bend, like growths of fungus sticking to the brown trunk of a tree. Wind ran along the riverbed, stirring the green rice stalks, like streaming green neon." -From the Train Journey to Jinjiang
