Description
For the first time in my life, I was shot at as I approached the Beirut shore. I know now that if they wanted to kill me, they could have that night. This is just one of the many adventures the author has faced during his 44 years of living and working in the volatile Middle East. As the famous writer and lecturer, Helen Keller once wrote: ?Life is a daring adventure, or it is nothing at all?. In the author?s own lifetime he has experienced a profuse number of adventures, and many were truly amazing life-changing episodes, in fact so many that he has decided to share them by writing his third book.
