Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Pearls, Arms and Hashish; Pages From the Life of a Red Sea Navigator, Henri De Monfried' is a gripping first-hand account of a life lived on the fringes of the law in one of the world's most treacherous and exotic maritime regions. Henri de Monfreid recounts his extraordinary experiences as a sailo…r, pearl diver, and daring smuggler operating across the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden during the early 20th century. The narrative captures the essence of a bygone era of maritime adventure, where Monfreid navigated the intricate political and physical landscapes of the Middle East and East Africa. From the pearl banks of the Red Sea to the secretive trade in arms and hashish, the work offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of a man who rejected European convention in favor of the nomadic existence of the sea. Rich in atmosphere and historical detail, this work serves as both a memoir and a vivid travelogue, providing insight into the cultural and social dynamics of the regions Monfreid traversed. His encounters with local tribes, colonial authorities, and fellow mariners create a compelling portrait of survival and independence.
