Mit diesem Hörbuch dokumentiert die Autorin Hermine Stampa-Rabe ihre schwere Fahrradexpedition von Missoula/ Montana, USA, durch Kanada auf dem Alaska Highway nach Anchorage in Alaska. Aus dem Bericht ihres Radsportvereins "Adventure cycling", ersah sie, dass sie streckenweise auf sehr grobem Straßenasphalt radeln muss.

In Old Man River, Paul Schneider tells the story of the river at the center of America's rich history - the Mississippi. Some fifteen thousand years ago, the majestic river provided Paleolithic humans with the routes by which early man began to explore the continent's interior.

George Washington fought his first battle near the river, and Ulysses S. Grant and William T. Sherman both came to President Lincoln's attention after their spectacular victories on the lower Mississippi.
