Description
Book SynopsisThe author’s research has taken him around the world, and besides his research findings, the book has a rich array of anecdotes and adventures, ranging from the threat of imprisonment in South Africa to a period spent as the personal physician to the multi-millionaire Governor of the Fiji Islands.
Trade Review... a bracing tonic of a read from the pen of an action man.
