What to expect
'A marvellous adventure and an impressive feat of endurance. This is also a journey that explores the people and landscapes of a misunderstood part of the world with great insight and enthusiasm' Ranulph Fiennes on The Land Beyond
'McCarron is great company, amusing and wise beyond his years (yet still retaining the wide-eyed nature of youth)' 220 Triathlon Magazine Website
'The book is easy to read, fast-paced, funny and introspective' Adventure Travel Magazine on The Road Headed West
Critics Review
‘A journey through both time and ecological crisis: as epic as it is engaging’
‘A combination of honest writing, diligent research, abundant empathy and an eye for a good story . . . [this] is a book by turns hard-hitting, urgent, gently lyrical and self-deprecating, a bittersweet pleasure’
‘McCarron reveals what humanity stands to lose with the threatened death of a great river and what can be done to try to save it. His journey along the Tigris was the first attempt at a full descent since Ottoman times’
‘A captivating journey’
‘This remarkable book warns of the death of a great river that might no longer flow to the Gulf by 2040 – and is a call to action to prevent the birthplace of civilisation from becoming uninhabitable’
