Long Way From Home: Two Tales of Travel

In Ten Year Run and Metal Fatigue, Todd Baker wittily shared his passions for running and heavy metal. In his third book, Long Way From Home, Baker takes readers along for two light-hearted journeys on planes, trains, and aircraft carriers. And he provides the pictures to prove it. First, Baker shares the tale of a European tour of three countries and nine cities with seven family members, as they traveled without the aid of a long list of must-see sights but a fascination with language barriers, good coffee, and international bathroom etiquette. Next, is the story of his 24-hour tour of duty aboard a US Navy aircraft carrier, where Baker learns what it takes – whether inspiring, mundane, or just comical – for 5,000 sailors and pilots to defend America’s freedom on board a 1,000 foot ship. In Long Way From Home, Baker, as always, finds humor and insight in the small stuff as he takes his motto – be who you are, like what you like, and do cool stuff – on the road.
