Kazik’s Africa: 40,000 km Cycling Adventure

Embark on an astonishing solo odyssey across Africa with Kazimierz Nowak—the first person in history to cycle the continent twice, from north to south and back—traversing some 40,000 km on two wheels at the dawn of the 20th century. Born in 1897 in Stryj (then in Austro-Hungary), Nowak overcame poverty and uncertainty to conquer deserts, jungles, and savannahs, driven by an unbreakable spirit of adventure. Lukash Vezhbytskyi revives this epic tale in a richly illustrated 176-page hardcover, weaving archival documents, vivid narrative, and inspiring lessons in courage and determination for young explorers and armchair travelers alike
