Review Quote

“An amusing and informative look into alternative fuels, conservation, and what individuals and corporations . . . can do about climate change.”

"From its punny title, to its unique premise (a man decides to drive from coast to coast in a car powered by used French fry oil), to its serious message (you, too, can be more environmentally conscious), to its easygoing writing style, this is just a splendid book. . . .An exciting and occasionally nail-biting adventure. . . .[Melville] is a lively stylist, and the book is both entertaining and educational."—Booklist, starred review

“An entertaining combination of On the Road and An Inconvenient Truth.”—New York Times Book Review
