A Crossing
A Cyclist's Journey Home
by Brian Newhouse

"Spare and graceful prose. The book is full of evocative, metaphorical descriptions of the landscape between Washington and Maine."
(Minneapolis Star Tribune)

"Captures the beauty of riding across America. The writing is lyrical and evocative, but behind the good writing is also a good story."
(Erie, Pennsylvania News)

"Gripping. A remarkable read for long-distance cyclists and those who hunger for road adventure!"
(Adventure Cycling)

"Newhouse has done a noble service to fathers and sons. Meet yourself in a book which reaches out and pulls you in. Are you a son? Buy a copy for your father. A father? Buy one for your son. Most books describing a crossing of the U.S. by bike are a bore, but Newhouse has hit paydirt here. If you have read every book about a trans-crossing, then you have never read anything this gripping and absorbing."
(Wire Donkey)

"An amazing ride!"
(St. Paul Pioneer Press)
