Book Launch | So Long; South America by Pat Barrett
Scorpio Books warmly welcomes you to the launch of So Long; South America by local author Pat Barrett. A new book of real adventure in 1980’s South America, reviewer Mark Leishman says of the book: “So Long; South America excels as both a tribute to one man’s adventurous life and a call to explore beyond familiar borders.” All welcome, refreshments provided.
In May 1982 three young kiwi travellers set out to explore South America on their own terms with no other knowledge of this wild and mysterious continent than that gleaned from the travel ‘bible’ of the day – The South American Handbook. Unbeknownst to them, their adventure began in a time that has been lost to the annals of travel history; a world with no internet and no instant communication. Read more about the book here.
Friday 31 October, 5.30pm @ Scorpio Books, Five Lanes, 120 Hereford Street
