" Are You Looking For A Book That Is So Full Of Adventure That You Can't Help But Get Your World Atlas To Follow This Yatchies Escapades Through The South Pacific And Beyond?"
If you answered "YES!" then have a closer look at this brilliant book, 'Rascal of the South Pacific' - by Athol Rusden. (Click on the image to see a bigger picture of it)
It Is About The Fellow Traveller That Dwells Within Each Of Us...
This is not a story about fame or glory or notable achievements or recognition. Such attributes, worthy as they might be, are superfluous to the real essence of life. It is about the fellow traveller that dwells within each of us.
The essence and spirit of adventure that we can all relate to. In taking his "wish list" seriously, Athol created the greatest reward of all - golden memories free of remorse and regret - which he now generouly shares with the reader.
A Note From The Author...
"I am introducing myself and my story of “Rascal of the South Pacific”.
My autobiography will perhaps awaken that spirit of adventure that lays tucked away in most of us as is depicted by the many colorful characters and friends I met during my 60 years of roaming the South Pacific and oceans around the world.
I have presented Rascal of the South Pacific in an easy readable fashion covering my 60 years as an Island Trader in the South Pacific and as Captain and owner of some 28 vessels ranging from cruising yachts to larger cargo vessels.
My book tells of many voyages and escapades both in the pursuit of adventure and trading.
If the reader gets the sudden urge before the years thunder by for adventure, then my advice is just go out and do it my book may surely inspire them."
A.Rusden, Born in Auckland, New Zealand on 15/9/1918
Read More About The 'Rascal Of The South Pacific' - By Athol Rusden...
This is a readable and interesting account of a colorful life, spent mainly in fields across much of the South Pacific. Over a period of 50 years, the Author captained some 28 vessels ranging from cruising yachts to luxury motor yachts and larger cargo vessels.
The strength of Rascal of the South Pacific - by Athol Rusden perhaps lies in the valuable insights it provides into the life of numerous South societies (including the Cook Islands, Tahiti, Samoa, Toanga Vanuatu, New Caledonia, the Galapagos Islands and many small atolls), in the era before mass tourism and modernization.
