Restless Men

0/5 ( ratings)

Restless Men is Peter Pinney in Australia - one of this county's most colourful and popular travel writers, who has previously specialised in bizarre adventure in Africa, India, the West Indies, and Europe, now turning his attention to tropical Queensland and the Northern Territory.
Colourful adventure, danger and comedy are as much to the fore as ever, for instance when Pinney sails his own crazy boat through the rip-tides of the Barrier Reef and then lands work as a kitchen hand on one of the islands where waitresses and the tourists make hay in the sunshine and moonlight; yet this book, perhaps simply because the people and their problems it discusses are of more immediate concern to Australia, as a strength, a depth, an underlying seriousness not so apparent in his earlier books; and for that reason it is Pinney's best.

Language: English

Pages: 214

Format: Hardcover

Release: January 01, 1966
