The Confessions of a Beachcomber

Paperback . . . . . $17.99

". . . fascinating autobiography . . . especially recommended reading for any one who has ever felt like chucking so-called 'modern life' and returning to a simpler, more basic existence in harmony with the environment and all that nature has to offer the contemplative life."

The Adventures of a Tropical Tramp

By Harry L. Foster

Paperback . . . . . $17.99

"The Adventures of a Tropical Tramp is fascinating reading and we can only hope for future volumes detailing his later itinerant travels to far away places and foreign climes."

--The Bookwatch, Midwest Book Review

The Adventures of a Tropical Tramp is the first travel narrative written by Harry La Tourette Foster, a veteran of World War One who really couldn't "go back down on the farm" after he had seen Parie. Gripped by a impulse to adventure, Foster spent most of his life after the war wandering the main roads and back roads of the world, first in Mexico and South America, then later in Asia, the South Pacific, and the Caribbean.

My Tropic Isle

Born in Liverpool, England in 1852, Edmund James Banfield moved to Ararat, Victoria in Australia when he was just two. His father established a local newspaper, the Ararat Advertiser, and as a young man "Ted" followed in the journalistic tradition first as a reporter for his father, then later in Melbourne and Sydney, but was delighted to take a post in more remote Queensland at the Townsville Daily Bulletin.
