Produktbeschreibung

'One of stand-up's great naturals. No one told a story better' GUARDIAN

¿¿¿¿¿¿ THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING HILARIOUS BOOK OF GLOBAL ADVENTURES FROM THE NATION'S FAVOURITE COMEDIAN ¿¿¿¿¿¿

Being a Rambling Man was what I always wanted to be, to live the way I damn well pleased. I've met the weirdest and most wonderful people who walk the Earth, seen the most bizarre and the most fantastic sights - and I've rarely come across something I couldn't get a laugh at. I don't think I've ever had a bad trip. Well, apart from in the 1970s, but that's a whole other story . . .

Join Billy Connolly as he rides his trike down America's famous Route 66, builds an igloo on an iceberg in the Arctic, plays elephant polo (badly) in Nepal, crashes his motorbike (more than once), eats witchetty grubs in Australia, is serenaded by a penguin in New Zealand, and swaps secrets in a traditional sweat lodge ritual in Canada. Rambling Man is a truly global adventure with the greatest possible travel companion.

'A funny, life-affirming rhapsody . . . The Big Yin is an actual comic genius. His romantic hippie outlook and generosity of spirit are infectious' Big Issue

''Very engaging and good fun . . . with lots of stories to make you smile or laugh' Scotsman
