GUILLERMO FESSER TU BIOGRAFIA PUEDE SER UN BESTSELLER & ONE HUNDRED MILES FROM MANHATTAN
In 2002 Guillermo Fesser quit his morning radio talk show in Madrid, and moved with his family to Rhinebeck, N.Y., for a sabbatical year. Finding himself in a rural community 6,000 miles from home and 100 miles from New York City, Fesser began to discover an America he had never imagined existed.
One Hundred Miles from Manhattan is a fresh, funny, positive and affectionate portrait of life in small-town Americaand beyond. This book is filled with the stories of the people Fesser met, the places he visited and the things he learned during his year in Rhinebeck, from the German neighbors who welcome in the New Year by jumping back and forth from the couch to the coffee table to a Texan rancher who follows Native American traditions in the raising of bison; from a guide who leads fishing expeditions into Alaska's Kuskokwim Mountains to the engineer responsible for the steam conduction system in Manhattan's underbelly; and from a former follower of Reverend Moon turned track coach to the man who created Big Bird.
