A HILARIOUS AND HEARTWARMING


ROAD-TRIP ADVENTURE FROM A FORMER
TONIGHT SHOW CONTRIBUTING WRITER
hen Jim “Roastbeef” Hume embarks on a quest to sprinkle his fa-
ther’s ashes in each of the forty-eight contiguous states, he has no
idea that a series of bizarre and ridiculous adventures await. But
nothing will deter him from fulfilling the promise he made to his dying father—
not a brief incarceration in Iowa or a punctured lung in South Dakota.

As he travels across the country, he picks up numerous new friends, presides


over the ultimate frat party, poses as a lesbian’s boyfriend, and gives away a
very pregnant bride in a Las Vegas wedding. And who could have dreamed that
somewhere amidst the craziness of dropping ashes from a crop duster and find-
ing Elvis’s toenail, Roastbeef would stumble upon a lucrative career?

Join Roastbeef as he drives, bikes, hitchhikes, rides the rails, and mo-peds his
way around the country. This is one warm and funny road-trip you don’t want
to miss.

“If I were going to read a book this year, I’d read Roastbeef’s Promise.”
.”
—Mike Colasuonno, staff writer, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
