In his last decade, Whitman mentored Ronny Bauer, a onetime techie from the Silicon Valley who divides his life between surfing in Morocco and selling ice cream in Ocean City, New Jersey. Echoing a spirit of the Beat Generation, Bauer tells of his times and his travels with George, a rare kind of Dean Morarity – altruistic, difficult, indefatigable, often hilarious, always unique. * "In May 2000, I quit my job, sold all my possessions and set out with the goal of visiting man’s greatest achievements – the pyramids of Giza, Machu Picchu, Angkor Wat, the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall of China... Little did I know that a bookstore in Paris would end up being the most fantastic and awe-inspiring of them all. Travel changes the soul. George Whitman changed my life forever…" Ronny Bauer
