A sense of the world; how a blind man became history's greatest traveller
Enlarge image
Product features
He was known simply as "The Blind Traveller" - a solitary, sightless adventurer who, astonishingly, fought the slave trade in Africa, survived a frozen captivity in Siberia, hunted rogue elephants in Ceylon and helped chart the Australian Outback. James Holman became 'one of the greatest wonders of the world he so sagaciously explored', triumphing not over only blindness but crippling pain, poverty and the interference of well-meaning authorities. This book relives his life of exploration.
