Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

'East of Pulau Weh' is a story of ships, a sailor's lifestyle, and the nostalgia that lingers from years roaming the seas of the Far East; the ships sailed in and visited places, during an age of wonderment and adventure.

A Biographical Novel of historical nonfiction, which captivates some of the early voyages and life the author spent as Captain on ships sailing through the idyllic tropical seas of southeast Asia and Oceania, the unique way of life in a bygone era, and the sailors of fortune who really were global mariners in the true sense.

The book captivates the end of an age, when ships all possessed their own particular 'heart and character' and were crewed by what may be affectionately referred to as a 'different breed' of seafarer', now morphed through the passage of time, remaining only as misty and vague memories.

A must read for those fortunate enough to have experienced the golden years of shipping..
