Summary
Charley's passion for travel and adventure continues in his new challenge - By Any Means. Travelling from his home town in Co Wicklow all the way to Sydney, he will use any means he can to reach his destination, via transport as diverse as steam train, horse, boat, kayak, truck, and tuk-tuk. And of course his beloved motorbike!
Whether crossing the Black Sea, trekking through Tibet, riding an elephant in India or hiking through the forests of Papua New Guinea, this will be a unique opportunity to meet fascinating people and explore extraordinary places. With trademark enthusiasm, dedication, and good humour, Charley's new trip is set to be his most challenging yet.

Not as good as his previous books
If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?
I thought I would really enjoy this book after reading longway round and long way down but this book is more like an itinerary list, I have to say I'm very disappointed because I'm a big fan of Charley Boorman but I've only listened to about an hour this book and don't intend to listen to the rest, so I'm not really sure who it's for. It maybe just me after enjoying the other two books so much.
What was most disappointing about Charley Boorman’s story?
The most disappointing thing about this book is the fact that Charlie Boorman doesn't read it himself, I know he didn't read Long way down along way round with Ewan McGregor either but I have really struggled with it this time. It's such a shame when big names don't read their own books, I am sure they would sell me copies, the best example is Chris Evans book, its great read by him, it means the characters really shine throug, imagine if Charley narrated this it would be a different story because he is great to listen to on the radio and TV. Sorry Charley
Would you be willing to try another one of Rupert Degas’s performances?
Not really
What character would you cut from By Any Means?
N/a
Any additional comments?
No, as I say maybe it's just me, maybe I will go back to it when I'm on holiday.
