It was an OK book. A memoir of a British couple who lose their home, and decide to walk along the entire shore of England, camping on the way. It got boring and repetative in each town, and every rainstorm. They did meet some interesting characters along the way, but it was a book club read, so I finished it.
Gives homelessness a whole new meaning.
Moth and Raynor had a home, business and savings until a bad investment with a friend took everything leaving them with nothing. Moth was then diagnosed with a debilitating, terminal illness. Being the outdoor type and work the land people they, mostly Ray, decided to walk the 630 mile Southwest Coast Path in England. The story follows their journey of backpacking and hard camping. The couple's attitude reminded me of the 60s and 70s live and let live era. It is a funny, heartbreaking and uplifting story about this devoted couple.
