Fakta

A real-life adventurer. A demanding pan-American trek. Will one Englishman dare to face his fears?

Short-listed for Outdoor Book of the Year by The Great Outdoors magazine.

Born wanderer Keith Foskett had thousands of miles of thru-hiking experience when he prepared for his toughest challenge yet: a punishing 2,640-mile hike from Mexico to Canada. In a six-month journey along America’s Pacific Crest Trail, he battled the arid expanses of California’s deserts, the towering peaks of Oregon’s volcanic landscape, and the dense forests of Washington.

Battling phobias of bears, snakes, critters and camping in the woods after dark, can Foskett find new ways to achieve his ultimate goal when the worst winter in years bears down?

Shortlisted for The Great Outdoors magazine Outdoor Personality of the Year and Book of the Year multiple times, veteran storyteller Keith Foskett invites you for a trek across the greatest long-distance hiking trail on Earth. With astute observations, wit, and a delightful cast of characters, you’ll discover a compelling narrative that turns the travelogue formula on its head.

The Last Englishman is an extraordinary travel memoir by an experienced long-distance hiker. If you believe there’s more to life than work, yearn for new horizons and challenges, and believe in overcoming adversity, then you’ll love Keith Foskett’s tale of exploration.

Reviews

'I'm not sure if Keith Foskett knows it but he has penned a hiking classic.

I just wanted to pack up my bags and head off into the wilderness.'

- Spencer Vignes (The Observer).

Experience everything from eccentric hikers to rattlesnakes. Easy to read and at times

laugh-out-loud funny, it will make you want to pack your rucksack and go.'

- Rosie Fuller (Adventure Travel magazine).
