“In 1981, a nineteen year old American roller skated more than 800 miles across France alone. No GPS. No phone. Two ski poles, one backpack, and an engagement ring. He navigated with paper maps. He dodged tour buses and sports cars screaming down steep mountain roads. He slept in lighthouses to avoid police. He skated through golf ball sized blisters. He confronted temptation, tested loyalty, and discovered the physical cost of going too far. His first day brought him mere inches from death. And he kept going.

Born in Newport Beach- and currently living just a few miles from where he was born, J. Michael Jarvis writes from his experiences as a professional jet pilot, yacht captain, and global adventurer with thousands of true, remarkable, and often hilarious stories of how he mucked things up.
