The year was 1928 when two young Hungarians decided to travel around the world on a HarleyDavidson motorcycle with sidecar. Like Robert Fulton, whose circumnavigation of the globe is chronicled in his popular 1937 book, One Man Caravan, Sulkowsky thought his was the first aroundtheworld journey on a motorcycle. This account of his trip with friend Gyula Bartha gives a very cleareyed view of the world in the 1930s a world where the colonizing influence of Europe had affected much of Africa and Asia but not all. The two experienced the riches of sultans, witnessed remote cultures and extreme poverty in farflung villages, travelled through wilderness with the everpresent danger of wild animals, and traversed roads of all descriptions. They dealt with mud, sand, extreme heat and cold, and rivers where the motorcycle had to be taken apart to cross in a small boat. This intelligent and engaging book, now in a paperback edition, offers a unique world view between the World Wars, flavored by the great diversity of cultures and the wide variety of human life that exists on the planet.

I bought this thinking it would be more about the bikes themselves, but it focuses on the journeys. The writing style is engaging, but after a while, I found it less interesting. Probably better for die-hard motorcycle fans.

Interesting but a bit repetitive
While I enjoyed the history and tales of adventure, some parts felt a bit drawn out. It’s great for motorcycle enthusiasts, but I wish it had more varied stories. Still worth a read if you're into this kind of journey.

Perfect gift for bike lovers
I got this book for my brother who loves motorcycles, and he absolutely adored it! The tales from 1928 to 1936 are captivating and full of adventure. Great quality and perfect for coffee table display, too.
