Dr. Walter K. Asbeck decided to take an ambitious trip in his youth. He traveled around the globe on a shoestring and immersed himself in different cultures and customs. Now, after celebrating his 102nd birthday, Asbeck looks back on his many youthful adventures and details his remarkable experiences. Asbeck and his friend Hans decided to sail around the world before attending school at universities in Berlin and Vienna. In the late 1930s, the world was dynamic and exciting. No one knew the destruction that lay ahead. Join Asbeck as he drives across the American West; visits the sights, shrines, and shops of Tokyo; sees Hong Kong's harbor from Victoria Peak; visits the Temple of the Tooth in the holy Buddhist city of Kandy; and has many other adventures across four continents. Asbeck details the wonders of the world but also notes the changing views and shifting allegiances of society in 1939. As Asbeck chronicled in his first memoir, Escape from Berlin, he would soon become trapped in Nazi Germany as war ravaged the world. His insight into the years before the war and into the many cultures he experienced are invaluable to any lover of history, travel, and adventure.
