A memoir of the odyssey undertaken by two eccentric retirees as they travel on every mile of railway track in mainland Britain. Surreal and poignant by turns, Stuart Campbell describes the people they meet and the unwanted adventures that befall them. Campbell is aided and abetted by the ghost of Daniel Defoe, writer, soldier, businessman, and spy who completed his own journey around Great Britain in the 1720s
