Sobre este item
Random House, Australia, 2014. Softcover. Near Fine. âDiving was a boys-own adventure, a jump into the unknown full of devil-may-care attitudes. It welcomed you with one hand and cast you asunder with the other. It was a hideous bitch goddess and it drank the blood of the unprepared.âSince his low-key upbringing, Hugh âObiâ OâBrienâs life has been a wild ride. What led this country boy, one of four sporty sons, from Sydney boarding school to directionless youth to navy clearance diver â slipping undetected through deep waters to defuse mines and dismantle bombs? Then, upping the adrenaline, Obi joined the mysterious Special Forces counterterrorism unit TAG (East) â no walk in the park.In his memoir Undaunted â full of eye-popping anecdotes and sparing the reader nothing of his persistent self-doubt â he recounts this incredible journey. He also describes the difficult transition from military life â to his days risking âspaghettificationâ on underwater construction projects then private security work pirate-hunting in the Red Sea and tearing along the worldâs most dangerous roads in the Middle East.If youâve ever wondered what it would be like to follow a high-action alternative route through life, Obi makes a unique guide. Undaunted is an engaging and unexpected account by an operator at once tough, whimsical and funny and always brutally honest.ix, 324 page, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations (some colour), portraits ; 24 cm #170122 (Light age tanning.)
