- Description or summary of the audiobook: 'Peter Zheutlin has written a lovely, moving, important book about a subject that is both heartbreaking and joyful.' - Dean Koontz How far would you go to save a life? This is the extraordinary story of one man who has driven more than 1 million miles to rescue thousands of dogs from hunger, abuse and neglect and give them a second chance at life and love.For years, Greg Mahle struggled to keep the last of his family-run restaurants afloat in Ohio. When it finally closed, he was broke and unsure what to do next. Then a stranded van-load of puppies changed his life forever.Join journalist Peter Zheutlin as he travels with Greg from Ohio to the Gulf Coast on his Rescue Road Trips to bring hard-luck dogs from the deep South to loving 'forever families' up north looking to adopt a pet, with the help of many selfless volunteers along the way. From Houston's impoverished Fifth Ward-where thousands of strays roam the streets-and high-kill animal shelters in Louisiana, to joyous scenes of adopters embracing their new pups in the Northeast, Rescue Road is full of heart: an inspiring story about the unique bond between dogs and humans, and how going the extra mile can make a life-changing difference for these loyal canines-and for us all.A heartwarming, awe-inspiring story of how one man can impact so many lives, human and puppy alike. Fans of Marley and Me, Oogy: The Dog Only A Family Could Love, and You Had Me At Woof will be inspired and touched by this story.What readers are saying about Rescue Road: 'I stand in awe of those who can do this kind of rescue work, for their persistence, compassion and willingness to get dirty in the service of animals.''a heartwarming & eye opening journey into the world of dog rescue.''I highly recommend this book if you are looking to restore your faith in humanity.''a heart-warming story that reaffirms there are many compassionate people who work tirelessly to save dogs.'What reviewers are saying about Rescue Road: 'An unabashedly sentimental and affecting portrait of a modern-day animal-loving hero.' - Kirkus'a canine caravan with heart and soul...' - Teresa Rhyne, author of the #1 NYT bestseller The Dog Lived (And So Will I) 'Heartwarming doesn't suffice to describe it... restores faith in humanity.' - Alexandra Horowitz, author of Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know 'A tender, inspiring homage...' - Matthew Gilbert, author of Off the Leash: A Year at the Dog Park'Inspiring and riveting new book...a must-read...' - The Bark
