About this audiobook

At last, the rest of the story…

Ten years and twelve million copies after the first printing of The Bridges of Madison County, Robert James Waller brings to a poignant conclusion his story of the love affair between a wandering photographer and the conventional wife of an Iowa farmer.

In A Thousand Country Roads, Robert Kincaid initially finds himself with little but memories—memories of a lonely existence lived mostly on the road and memories of Francesca Johnson, the woman whose passion he stirred so briefly and with such power. Kincaid takes to the road again in what becomes a journey of discovery and surprise. With his dog Highway beside him, Kincaid begins a long winding run back to Roseman Bridge in Madison County, Iowa, returning to the place of his great love affair.

Living her own solitary life, Francesca still visits Roseman Bridge and reflects on her days and nights with Robert Kincaid. Cherishing the memory of the strange wandering man who changed her world, she vows to search for him.

    My favorite movie of all time is 'The Bridges of Madison County'. Have watched it many times. This audiobook ranks right next to the movie. Will probably be listening to it alot. Thank you so much.

    I read the book, but the audio is equally excellent. It's so sentimental, I wish Robert and Francesca could have been reunited.

    An interesting/fun read. It was not the blockbuster of [Bridges of Madison County], but it did fill out the story of Robert Kincaid. It does touch a bit about Francesca Johnson, but it is really a story about Kincaid character. Touching is some spots with some irony. Would not suggest unless you read Bridges.

    A beautiful ending to the original story, it fills in all the missing years. It warms the heart.
