In a century that set out to tame, civilize, and revolutionize the world
Teddy always managed to stay a step ahead and find the last wild places.
Where I'm Bound I Can't Tell opens with a troubled kid in the nineties
named Lee smart-mouthing his way through community service, yet meeting
one old man will forever change his life. Born in 1900 Teddy could never
stand still, running away to join the French Foreign Legion as a boy he
never returns to the states until the 1980's. Along the way he crosses
deserts, explores the Amazon, bears witness to Gandhi's movement, sails
oceans, hunts with Zulu, and becomes an aid worker in Africa. While Lee
struggles to grow up and learn what kind of man he is going to be Teddy
teaches him about the infinite possibilities and devastating tragedies
of life.
