Thanks!

Hey Steve, I really enjoyed your book, “The Wonder Trail.” I checked it out at the library. It was like I took the trip with you, with your interesting stories, and interesting people. I looked up many places on line as I read the book. Now I have to return the book full of dog ears!
Hi, Steve! I bought your audio book, The Wonder Trail, from Audible and I really loved it! Up until now, my favorite book by my favorite travel writer has been The Great Patagonian Express ( Paul Theroux). After reafing your book, I may have to revise the ranking……. Thank you for writing about your wonderful adventures. I also really appreciate the historical perspective you include for each country. Very helpful.
You mentioned sending a free PDF book, which I hope you will do.
Oh, and thanks for mentioning In Patagonia. I’m ordering it now……..
Yes, Virginia, I will send you a free copy — email me at helphely at gmail
