Somewheres East of Suez

This is the final installment of Tristan Jones’s sailing saga taking him 8000 miles from Istanbul to Thailand. From the tourist dominated ports of the eastern Mediterranean to African outposts peopled with famine refugees. Tristan mantains the unique perspective of a man who has had minimal contact with society’s restraints, using his ascerbic wit to spare no fools and offer biting social commentary. After barely escaping with his life in South Yemen, he sets of for the Far East, determined to win out against the difficulties of his disability, whether battling a tropical cyclone or relishing a dwindling ration of fresh water in the vast windless expanse of the Indian Ocean.
