Cobb, an American, sets out on a six-month adventure in his trusty automobile, driving through various countries and encountering different cultures along the way.The book is divided into chapters that cover each leg of Cobb's journey, beginning with his departure from New York and his arrival in England. From there, he travels through France, Italy, Switzerland, and Germany, describing the landscapes, people, and customs he encounters. He then crosses the Mediterranean to Tunisia and continues on through Algeria, Morocco, and Spain before returning to France and eventually England.Throughout the book, Cobb provides detailed descriptions of the roads he travels on, the challenges he faces with his car, and the various accommodations he stays in. He also offers insights into the cultures and societies he encounters, such as the Berber tribes of North Africa and the poverty he witnesses in parts of Europe.Motor Odyssey In Europe And Africa is a fascinating account of a bygone era of travel, offering readers a glimpse into the early days of automobile travel and the spirit of adventure that drove people to explore the world.
