Brent Antonson 
Ties That Bind 

Support

The author and his father and brother attempt the world’s longest train ride, to see if they can stay together as a family unit in a tight train compartment for nine days. Not only did they survive without assaulting each other, but they also continued on epic train trips, the world’s second and third-longest train trips in the world. Then they went to North Korea for a week, then lastly took a series of trains to get from Moscow to London whereupon they circumnavigated the northern hemisphere by train, together, with the same love, respect, and closeness then they started out with. It’s an engaging, danger-filled, comedic, and ‚off the rails‘ kind of book. You’re sure to enjoy it!


As a traveler and teacher, Brent Antonson has spent years living abroad for extended stints teaching English at universities and schools in Russia and Iraq and China.
