JOUR 1. 30 juillet 2018. Moscou. Je rejoins les quais nocturnes de la gare Jaroslaw, mon sac à dos bien accroché et mon enregistreur à la main. Direction la Mongolie.

Drugi tom amerykanskiego tryptyku podrózniczego pt.: "W slady Kolumba". Autor wraz z zona pedza po Stanach Zjednoczonych autem - czarnym, czterodrzwiowym De Soto - z którym to Wankowicz, niczym prawdziwy obywatel USA, jest zlaczony niemal organicznie - nazywa go swoim przyjacielem, a rozlaka z maszyna równa sie wrecz amputacji fizycznej. Sam autor tak pisal o cyklu: "Trzy ksiazki, które wydaje, powstaly z ciaglej wlóczegi. Zamiast osla mialem rozklekotane auto, a zamiast jalmuzny - honoraria za odczyty w ogromnym zasiegu ladów Ameryki i Kanady."
