„I am always finding myself a stranger in other people’s worlds,” Hammond Innes once said. Living and working with a survey team in the Rockies, with whalers on a catcher, with railway construction gangs in the bleak heart of Labrador; riding with Arabs to the mud skyscraper cities of Hadhramaut, to Buraimi Oasis and the explosive Yemen border; or penetrating the Zone of Insecurity in the Sahara, the Eskimo North of Hudson’s Bay… these are not easy things to do.
