The remarkable true story of an unrivalled journey to recreate the greatest run in film history: 15,621 miles, five-times across the United States. 'Rob Pope has made his name revelling in challenges that range from the unconventional to the extraordinary.' BBC News Becoming Forrest is the incredible story of Englishman Rob Pope, a veterinarian who left his job in pursuit of a dream - to become the first person ever to complete the epic run undertaken by one of Hollywood's most beloved characters, Forrest Gump. After his momma urged him "to do one thing in life that made a difference", he flew to Alabama, put on his running shoes, and sped off into the wilderness. His remarkable journey covered 15,600 miles, the distance from the North to the South Pole and a third of the way back. Over a grueling 18 months, braving injuries, blizzards, forest fires and deadly wildlife, he crossed the United States five times. During one of the most turbulent periods in recent American history, Rob immersed himself in American life. His time on the open road saw him forever changed, trying to make that difference, in the process of Becoming Forrest. This is a tale of one man who just wanted to make a difference. "Rob Pope is a real-life Hollywood superstar!' - Dean Karnazes, author of Ultramarathon Man "'A simply staggering feat of endurance and storytelling. The tenacity, curiosity and humour of Rob's amazing journey comes through in every page of this wonderful tale about people, discovery and a very, very long road."-Mark Beaumont, author of The Man Who Cycled the World "'With tons of humor Rob Pope takes us into one of the greatest running journeys. Lace up your shoes and enjoy this excellent book!"-Kilian Jornet, runner and author of Above the Clouds "'What Rob has achieved both physically and mentally is mind-blowing, a true feat of human endurance."-Tom Evans, Ultrarunner "'A very readable and entertaining travelogue about an effing extraordinary run."-Damian Hall, author of In It for the Long Run: Breaking Records and Getting FKT "'Most of us watched that scene and thought: cute. Pope watched it and thought: could that be possible? . Like Gump, Pope also experienced what it was like to drift through America when history rears its ugly head. . He brightens people's day. Pope is serious about running, but, just like Gump, he doesn't overthink it. Why should someone run? 'Because you want to,' he says."-The Observer "'A stirring chronicle . What quickly becomes striking - on top of the extreme distance of his runs, often 'forty miles every day without rest' - is Pope's innate curiosity and fascination with the world around him. . This is sure to inspire distance runners as well as those interested in a hearty slice of Americana."- Publishers Weekly starred review

In this time of pandemic and revolution, we find ourselves frustrated at so much: high levels of corruption and inequality, our inability to get basic things done, flagrant violations of human rights, and the persistence of systemic racism. Our democratic experiment is at a tipping point, but which way we tip is up to us.

It’s 1939 and glamorous film star Leyton’s life in Paris has been turned upside down when her new husband, Jacques Tartière, is sent to Brittany to work as a liaison for the British military.
Alone in a new city thousands of miles from home, Drue befriends wartime journalist Dorothy Thompson and political operative Jean Fraysse — and embarks on the most dangerous role of her life by aiding the French resistance.
Using the talent that made her a star of the stage and screen, Drue broadcasts radio programs to the United States to help enlighten Americans on the situation in France and encourage the U.S. to join the fight against the Nazis.
But the starlet’s broadcasts soon attract the wrong sort of attention, and when Hitler makes a promise that Drue will be executed when Germany occupies France, she must risk everything to keep fighting for her adopted homeland.
Based on the true story - this inspirational and meticulously researched novel isn’t the first tale bestselling author Jane Healey has written about little-known WWII women. She also penned:
-The Secret Stealers (2021) - a young American widow goes undercover as a female spy in the French resistance. Inspired by the true stories of the women of the Office of Strategic Services - the precursor to the CIA!!
-The Beantown Girls (2019) is based on the Red Cross “Clubmobile” girls who lifted the troops’ spirits with coffee and donuts, and became a support system and symbol of home for the soldiers on the front lines.
