Dave Gorman America Unchained book reading.

Basically Dave Gorman's attempt to travel across the united States without visiting any big corporate chains, even for fuel, which proved to be his biggest challenge of the trip. Dave set out to explain to the sold out audience how the book is not a written carbon copy of the documentary. He was talked into filming the road trip by his manager. After setting the scene, he read an extract that was not featured on T.V. It was witty, well written and definitely convinced me that it would be worth reading.

It seemed fitting that this event was held and an independent venue promoted by a non-chain 'mom and pop' book shop, echoing many of the things Dave G set out to highlight and document before they disappear only to be replaced by cloned high streets.
