A brilliant travel book written through the eyes of a great Aussie bloke.

In 1991 Andrew Daddo was sacked as an MTV presenter. Rather than slink back to Australia immediately, Andrew and a bloke he'd met at a party named Ray O'Neal, set off on a month-long motorcycle journey across America. That summer spent riding cross country with Ray forged a friendship that Andrew thought would last a lifetime. But in February 2004, Ray died in an accident. He left behind a wife and a young daughter, Rose. It's All Good is an extended letter to Rose, telling her about the father she lost, and the importance of loving those we have. Heartfelt and moving, it's a story with resonance for us all.

"Fired from his job as an MTV producer in 1991, Australian-born Andrew Daddo set out to travel across the United States on a motorcycle. After he met Ray O'Neal at a party, they decided to ride together. In 2004, after learning of O'Neal's death, Daddo wrote to O'Neal's daughter, Rose, telling her all about the trip and their adventures along the way. Daddo's narration is full of Australian slang and unusual American accents. Rock music separates chapters and scene changes. Reading at a steady pace, Daddo keeps the listener's attention by describing America from an outsider's point of view. At the same time, he provides a eulogy for his one-time friend while trying to share memories of him with daughter Rosie."
