About this ebook

Starting in the pastel skies of the Florida Keys, join award-winning author, tech entrepreneur and British immigrant-to-America James Anthony as he meanders the backroads of North America.

About the author

James Anthony is an award-winning author, yet comes from a distinctly non-literary background. A former tech-entrepreneur, he followed his passion for poetry by 'translating' all 154 of Shakespeare's sonnets, published by Penguin Random House in 2018. James writes across many genres, including travel, screenplays, and fiction, but retains an enduring love of the poetics of Shakespeare's iambic pentameter. After spending many years in the US, James now lives in his native London with his beloved wife Versha.
