"With tracks every 3 minutes for easy book marking"--Container.
Narrated by Simon Vance.
Both witty and poignant, this book follows Troost as he retraces Robert Louis Stevenson's path through the South Pacific. Somewhere between AA meetings in Tahiti and discovering how the Island of Merrymaking got its name, Troost reconnects with himself, his family, and the beauty of life.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A fun auditory trip submitted by mickplu on July 19, 2018, 3:38pm Interesting and funny at times, the author is a recovering alcoholic who sets out to follow in the traveling footsteps of Robert Louis Stevenson. Each new island, atoll, and village is approached with humor and wonder. The narration is great and makes the "dry" humor even more humorous.
