Falling Uphill One man's quest for happiness around the world on a bicycle. The Anniversary EditionIf you could do anything, what would you do?In one week, Scott Stoll lost his job, his best friend, his girlfriend and his confidence. Disillusioned with society, full of angst, suffering from depression and with nothing left to lose Stoll asked himself a question: "If I only have one life, one chance, if I could do anything, what would I do?"His answer resulted in a 4-year and 25,752-mile odyssey around the world by bicycle using nothing more than a paper map as a guide. Stoll searched for answers to the great mysteries of life, vowing to find happiness or die trying. The quest wasn't easy. He was imprisoned, held hostage, mugged, run over, suspected of terrorism, accused of espionage, nearly trampled by elephants, wounded, diseased, heartbroken--he nearly died a dozen times. But more importantly, Stoll discovered the wonders of the world, kindness among strangers, the meaning of life, peace, love, faith and--Yes --in the last place left to look, he found happiness.Re-live and re-imagine an archetypal adventure as a man stumbles through moments of pure survival and moments of pure enlightenment.For more information about the journey, please visit: http: //theargonauts.com/books/falling-uphill/

From the author of the best-selling and award-winning travel memoir Falling Uphill comes a prophetic dystopian novel.What if global warming isn't the problem, but a symptom of something much worse?The greatest mass extinctions in Earth's history were caused by cataclysmic oxygen depletion. Now, it has begun again, this time due to humanity's rampant industrialization - the burning of fossil fuels and the decimation of the ecosystems that produce oxygen. The oceans are already filled with giant dead zones, while cities and deserts overflow fertile lands.Breathless takes you into a plausible near-future as humanity crosses the tipping point and the Earth's atmosphere is destroyed in a global firestorm. A handful of survivors struggle to cooperate before the infrastructure fails, and question whether it is worth saving themselves, much less humanity.If you like post-apocalyptic classics like On The Beach, Earth Abides and Alas Babylon, Breathless will keep you turning pages to learn the fate of humanity.
