Having just finished Robert Harris’s ‘Precipice’, I snort laughed at this more than I should have.

The Last Overland - Alex Bescoby Hear the 'behind the scenes' take from his extraordinary journey of 13,000 miles across 23 countries – a recreation of the "First Overland"

MANCHESTER!

I’m giving my final talk of the year in my wonderful hometown.

Will be talking all things adventure, history and building career around passion. Would love to see you there!

So lovely to read this, thank you for sharing! Tim (and David Attenborough) have a lot to answer for!

Thanks Jon, that’s a cracking book, so readable almost 70 years on. Tim just turned 93!

Hope you enjoy!

I hadn’t seen this Rebecca, thanks so much for sharing - the photography is stunning! The 1954-5 First Overland (which we were paying homage to) set in motion some wonderful expeds, so cool to see the ripples - and Tim (who’s 93 now!) still gets letters from people he inspired. Wonderful.

Thank you so much for sharing @drlindseyfitz.bsky.social, utterly delighted to be here!
