Edición en Inglés
The memoirs recount the lifetime journey and factual stories of a British expat who has worked in or travelled to every continent in the world since the 1960's to recent times. The book includes many humorous situations which veteran expats in particular would appreciate but also at times those of a more serious nature. The central character relives his early travels through western Europe as it was with its history and culture and later to the balmy shores of Australia and South Africa and onwards to the Middle East and beyond. The historical wonders of cities such as Rome and Athens Beijing and Istanbul are documented in detail as are the trials and tribulations of life in Tehran and Baghdad during troubled times and the lifestyle of Sydney and Johannesburg among others in this travelling extravaganza.
The book contains an account of many unusual and interesting natural, archeological and human phenomena which are not generally in the public domain. These phenomena include discourses on the Three Sisters sandstone rock formation in the Blue Mountains of Australia; the monolithic Sibele Rock in Swaziland; the Victoris Falls in Zimbabwe; the Hellenistic carvings in the cliffs of Petra in the Kingdom of Jordan and the fruitful Tree of Life in the desert of Bahrain among many others.
