Mike Carter grew up in Birmingham and has spent most of his adult life in London, working in advertising, as a film location manager and then as a journalist. Mike has written for many national newspapers and magazines, but primarily for the Guardian, the Observer and the Financial Times, writing mostly travel. He now lives halfway up a hill in the glorious Black Mountains, Wales. His first book, Uneasy Rider, was The Oldie's travel book of the year. His second, One Man and His Bike, won Caught by the River's travel book of the year and is a regular Amazon No 1 best-seller. His latest book was All Together Now?, charting a 340-mile walk Mike undertook from Liverpool to London - through England's post-industrial heartlands - in May 2016, just weeks before the EU referendum. It is a book about how 40 years of neoliberalism have destroyed the lives of ordinary people and communities. Christopher Eccleston called it "A vital and powerfully moving book", while the Observer said "this important, disturbing and frequently heartbreaking book should be read by every politician in Westminster".
