Walking the World

The Goliath Expedition: Karl Bushby's Journey Around the Globe

By Nathaniel Greene

What would drive a man to walk around the entire world-on foot, without shortcuts, and against all odds?

In Walking the World: The Goliath Expedition, Nathaniel Greene tells the astonishing true story of Karl Bushby, a former British paratrooper who set out in 1998 to complete one of the most ambitious physical challenges in human history: to walk an unbroken path around the planet, starting from the southern tip of South America and ending back home in Hull, England.

Spanning more than two decades, this epic journey takes readers across treacherous deserts, frozen tundras, remote mountain ranges, and politically sensitive borders. From facing life-threatening conditions in Siberia to being detained by border officials, Bushby's quest is not only a test of physical endurance but of determination, resilience, and the human spirit.

This gripping narrative explores:

The origin of Karl's dream and the grueling preparation it required

Firsthand accounts of his encounters with nature, strangers, and self-doubt

The physical and emotional toll of walking over 36,000 miles

The historic crossing of the Bering Strait on foot

His unwavering mission to become the first person to complete a true global walk

Walking the World is more than an adventure story-it's an exploration of what it means to chase an impossible dream. Perfect for fans of true survival tales, global exploration, and extraordinary personal journeys, this book captures the raw, relentless spirit of a man who refused to quit.

Join Karl Bushby step by step, mile by mile, as he attempts to walk into the history books.
