Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Twenty Years in the Far East: Sketches of Sport, Travel and Adventure I send out this volume of Random Sketches of Travel, Sport and Adventure, as a tribute to the memory of the writer, my late husband, and I feel that some few words of explanation and introduction are necessary. It was his intention to have published them as soon as written, in the hope that the flattering winds, which favoured his first venture, "The Land of the Dragon," might waft this slight craft on a successful voyage. As will be seen from the volume itself, he was full of the joy of living, and was always ready when opportunity offered, to leave the monotony of official life and snatch a few weeks, or even days, in which to see new sights and meet with fresh experiences. He was always, on these occasions, the best of comrades, being uniformly cheerful and optimistic, and at all times full of resource, insight and charm.
