      "You are all going to die""Are you insane, what about ISIS and Boko Haram and the civil wars?!""Why can't you just take the easy route?""So, I guess you have never heard of Ebola?"The reception was not entirely popular when the Bell family announced that they would be driving the length of Western Africa in their Land Rover Defender, Mafuta. They received messages from serious people suggesting that they might want to reconsider the route and instead drive the relatively easy East African route to Southern Africa. But, if the family had obeyed warnings they would never have left home in the first place, would not have explored five continents by Land Rover, solo and would not have found the secrets of the planet.The West African route is the last great overland route where all elements combine in an adventure unlike any other on earth - bureaucracy, war, poverty, desert, rain forest mud, incredible people, dangerous people, hope, respect, kindness and beauty. This is the fifth book by Graeme Bell which brings to life a journey intense, a journey of Mud, Malaria, Guns and Miracles.

      We Will Be Free chronicles the challenges faced by the Bell family as they extract themselves from the “real” world and set off to explore Africa and circumnavigate the South American continent in a Land Rover. Written with passion and from the heart, We Will Be Free is more than just another travel book, it is a modern manifesto, a declaration of independence and self sufficiency. “From the title to the very last page of the book, I was intrigued and entertained! It is full of unabashedly honest and hilarious metaphors describing life on the road and what it's like to be a part of the "overlanding tribe."Graeme makes you feel like you are a part of the travel adventure as he divulges his raw, poetic and amusing consciousness.This book is both a salty and a tender work of art about a beautiful family. The Bell family, on paper and in real life, will inspire you to live life fully and in your own way.Overland The Americas”.
