The stories are fictional but there are small incidents that come from my experience, having travelled in Africa, Australia and New Zealand.Two young men from Birmingham leave England, individually, to pursue their lives elsewhere in the world; one before the outbreak of World War II, the other in the aftermath. The two separate stories follow ’Ari and Jeff through their life’s journeys, encompassing their highs and joys, alongside the less-than-happy times. Offering a vivid and entertaining travelogue embracing the sights and sounds of Africa and New Zealand, the author draws you into the very personal worlds of two ordinary men who each live extraordinary lives.
