FROM EARTH TO THE MOON and back BY MOTORCYCLE - BOOK 1 - BEYOND THE AMAZON: South America, On January 14, 1985, the epic journey that embraced the world began. Paperback – January 28, 2026

If you believe in reincarnation or in past lives, then Emilio Scotto is Marco Polo, or Christopher Columbus, or David Livingstone. For in the tradition of the great explorers, Emilio Scotto embarked on a journey that had never been undertaken before—except that in his case, it unfolded across a world that seemed already known and explored. What he found was quite the opposite. His adventure was as terrifying and dangerous as any ever faced by those legendary men.This is the true story of the greatest journey a child could ever imagine and a man could ever accomplish, written in the first person and in the present tense. That is why Emilio’s adventure already belongs to the cultural heritage of our time.In the near future, From the Earth to the Moon and Back by Motorcycle will be a kind of Bible that we all carry in our luggage, and fifty or one hundred years from now it will still be read as if everything were happening at that very moment. Emilio Scotto’s adventure stands as one of the most overwhelming examples of strength, perseverance, and willpower in pursuit of a goal that seemed impossible.Within these marvelous pages, written with the magic possessed only by great storytellers, you will find one of the greatest epics of the twentieth century. And you will be there—at every place. You will be part of the events. Because Emilio Scotto does not write—he speaks. These pages are not read; they are heard. And when you finish this book, nothing will be the same for you. When you close it, you will want only one thing: to return to the cover and begin again. Read more
