Aprašymas
Experience driving Canada's longest road, while learning of the iconic highway's beginnings.The Trans-Canada Highway is one of the longest highways in the world -- 7,700 kilometres from St. John's, Newfoundland, to Victoria, British Columbia, with almost the same distance again on secondary routes. It's a Canadian icon, but it didn't come easily. In The Drive Across Canada, automotive journalist Mark Richardson tells the stories of the pioneers who first drove across the country in the early days of cars and motorcycles, even before any roads existed, and of the political fight to create a physical link that would connect Canadians to every province of their vast country.
Richardson drove the length of the Trans-Canada Highway in 2023, repeating the drive he first completed in 2012. He encounters a hurricane in Newfoundland, a firestorm in British Columbia, and unspeakable tragedies on the Prairies. He meets people whose lives have been changed by the highway, sometimes in ways they could never have imagined, and along the way, the highway changes his life, too.
