It was the 18th of November 1956. The Hungarian Nation was on general strike against the Soviet invaders and their puppet Hungarian government, which had been organized on Soviet soil and sent to pacify the Nation... So begins Michael Kosztarabs story of his life -- a record of adventures and narrow escapes, of hard work, perseverance, ingenuity, and scientific endeavor that have taken him to every continent except Antarctica, where he has met people from all walks of life and observed the natural world. The book is graced with illustrations and photographs, and with his humor and this thoughtful discussion of political, educational, and common-sense matters.
