In the summer of 1977, two overconfident twenty-somethings set off across Europe and into Morocco armed with a gas station road map and very little plan. From circling Scotland and England in a Mini 850 to haggling in Moroccan markets, every wrong turn led to another story—and a new-found sense of direction. What began as a carefree escape became an accidental odyssey through friendship, misadventure, and the fragile courage of youth. Told with wit, honesty, and affection for a world that no longer exists.

Clueless Bravado is a memoir of friendship, foolishness, and the wide-open world of 1977—when getting lost was the only way to be found.
