The Hogarth Press, London, 1982. Second impression. Book condition: fine. Dust jacket condition: fine - unclipped and with little evidence of shelf wear, very slight tanning of internal surfaces. This is one of the most revealing books Laurens van der Post has written about his extraordinary life. The story starts with his childhood in southern Africa, and his passionate interest in ships and the sea that led him to take part, as a young man, in two voyages of special significance: first on a whaling ship and second on a long voyage to Japan.
