Two ex-bankers, middle aged and angry, are a long way from home....
Driven mad by suicidal Indian drivers, implacable Chinese bureaucrats, excremental crappers, appalling food, extreme altitudes, corrupt police and poisonous wines....
..but uplifted by smouldering funeral pyres, chanting monks, towering peaks and dizzying passes guarded by ancient fortresses. Julian Summer and Alex Catto travel a road through the crucible of history, from Timur-the-Lame to Josef Stalin.
