12,000 Miles in the Nick of Time: A Semi-Dysfunctional Family Circumnavigates the Globe

Mark Jacobson

A family comedy reminiscent of The Osbournes, Jacobson's odyssey is also a wider journey. It is a story about parenting that stretches across generations, an expedition into the minds of five family members as they make their way through a succession of cramped cars, 17-hour train rides, seemingly endless walks through teeming metropolises--and one more bowl of curry.
