It flows through more countries than any other river on Earth - from the Black Forest in Germany to Europe's farthest fringes, where it joins the Black Sea in Romania.

He meets would-be kings and walks with gypsies, and finally rows his way beyond the borders of Europe entirely...\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nPaddy Leigh Fermor... would surely approve ―\u003cbr\u003e\nDaily Telegraph\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCaptures the physical joy of travel wonderfully... a journey worth following ―\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Scotsman\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEames has the adventurousness and pleasantly self-deprecating sense of humour that makes a good travel writer...
