Publisher Description

35 concerts. 17,000 motorcycle miles. Three months. One lifetime. In May 2015, the veteran Canadian rock trio Rush embarked on their 40th anniversary tour, R40. For the band and their fans, R40 was a celebration and, perhaps, a farewell. But for Neil Peart, each tour is more than just a string of concerts, it's an opportunity to explore backroads near and far on his BMW motorcycle. So if this was to be the last tour and the last great adventure, he decided it would have to be the best one, onstage and off. This third volume in Peart's illustrated travel series shares all-new tales that transport the reader across North America and through memories of 50 years of playing drums. From the scenic grandeur of the American West to a peaceful lake in Quebec's Laurentian Mountains to the mean streets of Midtown Los Angeles, each story is shared in an intimate narrative voice that has won the hearts of many readers. Richly illustrated, thoughtful, and ever-engaging, Far and Wide is an elegant scrapbook of people and places, music and laughter, from a fascinating road - and a remarkable life.

Classic Peart!

Every bit as fun and enjoyable as I was expecting. Filled with great travel stories, touring stories and personal RUSH stories, family stories, and classic Peart musings on life in general, with his dry humor, his precision, and his amazing descriptive way with words. This is my 5th Neil Peart book,… the significance of the R40 Tour really hits home with this one.

Wow

A fantastic read (or listen), as are all of Neil’s books. Possibly his best work, and one worth many replays. R.I.P. Professor. Thank you for all of the gifts you’ve given us.
