Gone to Look for America is a road-worn journey into the backroom, backroad, moonshine heart of the USA.With a guitar on his back and a storyteller’s instinct for the road less travelled, Steve Bonham sets out in search of a different America—the one that lives off the main strip, beyond the guidebooks and neon promises.From the misty hollers of Appalachia to the honky-tonk bars of Nashville, from desert highways in New Mexico to the haunted rhythms of New Orleans, this is a journey through small towns, big characters and the places where myth and reality blur.Along the way, Bonham encounters songwriters, drifters, dreamers and survivors—people who carry their stories in their voices and their lives in their hands. Through music, conversation and hard-earned reflection, he uncovers an America built not on slogans, but on resilience, reinvention and the stubborn refusal to give up.Blending travel memoir, storytelling and original music, Gone to Look for America is by turns funny, moving and sharply observed—a book about getting lost, paying attention, and discovering that the real story is rarely the one you were told at the start.It is a search for the spirit of America—and whatever’s left of the American dream. - E-bokEngelska, 2019

"A boy''s own - and girls! - adventure of a trek, from the High Atlas mountains, across the Anti Atlas, then following the exotic river Draa into the Sahara. You will fall into a world and people as fascinating and friendly as any fairy tale."
- Mike McHugo OBE
Stumbling Over Eden starts with an idea born on the top of Mt Toubkal the highest peak in North Africa - to walk from the roof of the High Atlas Mountains to the sands of the Sahara Desert. What results is a fantastical tale involving a Krupp cannon, arrest, being tailed by the secret service, the lairs of old warlords, a spirit dog, a lost tribe of dwarfs and an amorous camel. But more than that, it is a story of resilience, companionship, independence, the strange weave of history and the true meaning of adventure.
Steve Bonham is an award-winning psychologist, a musician, an adventurer and a vagabond philosopher. He is the author of A Little Nostalgia for Freedom, A Beautiful Broken Dream and How to Survive and Thrive in an Impossible World.
