Comic Memoir Book Review – Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper

I am delighted to share with you this wonderful review of my new book, Building The Beast: How (Not) To Build An Overland Camper by D.G. Kaye, herself a distinguished memoirist, who chose my book for her Sunday Book Review.

“This book is an incredible read. It may be called Building The Beast, but this is so much more than the build, and so far away from a ‘how-to’ manual. This is a memoir about the author and her husband and their big dream to build a roadworthy mobile home to travel and live in. It is wonderfully written with rich descriptions about their retirement dream and every single obstacle they encountered from searching for the right vehicle to the many trials and tribulations they faced on the way to the build.

It is rather timely, since today, 1st July 2024, is our three year Beastversary – we have been touring in The Beast since 1st July 2021. You can check out our adventures on my Truckin’ About page.

“Are you sure there’s nothing provocative about parking an army truck just across the river from Russia, with its rear barn doors 100 metres from the border?”

“No,” Mark replied with confident finality.

“I might take my paddle board out…” he added with a mischievous grin.

“No,” I said, with confident finality.

I know what he’s like, trying to paddle across borders like he did on Lake Ohrid, between Albania and North Macedonia. Although that didn’t involve any countries with closed regimes who were at war.
