Between Meat and Trousers: Curious Travels: Hamburg to West Texas

Early travel experiences in Europe and an independent mindset drive a London student and his friend to give up everything they own and leave Thatcher's Britain with one-way tickets to New York City. They arrive in the New World knowing no one on the entire continent, with no fixed destination beyond a pilgrimage to Graceland, and no idea what may lie in wait. Marc Robertson draws on influences from his youth that affected his impulse to travel across the United States on a journey that would prove full of mishaps and danger, life lessons and strange encounters. This is the true story of a childhood filled with peculiar discoveries in Europe, the terrors of an English boarding school, an East End theatre life of ghosts and bum-slapping Swedes, and an almost penniless trek through America in an old Chevrolet with a block of cheese and a six-shooter.
