Roads From the Ashes

- An Odyssey in Real Life on the Virtual Frontier

Bag om Roads From the Ashes

When wildfire destroyed her home in the hills above Los Angeles, Megan Edwards seized the opportunity her sudden ¿stufflessness¿ offered. She hit the road with her husband and dog in the Phoenix One, the one-of-a-kind motorhome that ¿rose from the ashes.¿ This is the story of how a sabbatical that began with no itinerary and no return date grew into a five-year North American odyssey with a mission inspired by the birth of the World Wide Web: ¿To be at work, at home, and on the road, all at the same grand moment.¿ This 20th anniversary edition, which includes a new foreword, introduction, and photographs, offers a fascinating and often humorous look back at a time not so long ago when email was a bleeding-edge innovation, cellular ¿roaming¿ charges could clean out your bank account, and nobody had yet thought of equipping a telephone with a camera."
