1000 People in 1000 Places

Doug Mecham at age 27 had completed university and was tired of work already. So he purchased a round-the-world air ticket, packed a small backpack, sold his 1955 Thunderbird, and left his familiar life behind; it was 1967. His mission was to see different lands and experience different cultures, opening his mind to others and sharing ideas with them. This story of his 15-month journey is vibrant with photos.
