Overview:
Essentially an autobiography, this literary gem introduces the books encountered by the Author during his life's journey, and through them provides a brief history of humanity since the Greeks began writing books, while describing his own adventurous life. Now in his twilight years, his son, Dr Mark Thomson, rescued the manuscript and the resultant book will stand proudly in the bookshelves beside the great books of the world.
