He is back. Charley Boorman is back with another series of Extreme Frontiers. First there was Extreme Frontiers: Canada. Next there was Extreme Frontiers: South Africa. Now there is Extreme Frontiers: USA. This past summer they spent filming this. It is set to air in the UK on November 21 on Channel 5. As you may know I am a fan of his work. Own all his books. But still waiting for the South African one to be released here in Canada. Very much looking forward to see what he will be up to. Just wish some channel here would pick up his shows. I will “find” a way to watch this newest one because they are all ways very entertaining.

Well until his Extreme Frontiers: South Africa book comes out. All ways enjoy reading about his adventures. This one is no different. Other than the content seemed a bit thin compared to his other works. Did see the TV show the book is based on so I was hoping the book would bring more detail or things that weren’t on the show. Was disappointed with that part. Can only think of two things what were not in the show. Other than that this is a very good read. This it will work as a good tourism ad for any one wanting to now more about Canada.
This is another hit for Charley Boorman. Might be a bit bias since I am a fan of everything he does. How ever this is a fun easy read about experiencing the “extreme” adventures you can have in Canada. If you want to check out the show you can see them on YouTube > here. There are four episodes to watch.
