Publisher's Synopsis
This book focuses upon the remarkable and impressionistic account of a metaphorical journey from youth to experience and maturity. It also centres around the unravelling of the tale of two real journeys, including accounts of incidents which have profoundly altered the author's perspective on life, and which reverberate throughout the book. Fred Apps writes with a disarming insouciance about his early life, his tenuous romances and his love of boats and sailing. This is more than an autobiography, however; this is a spiritual memoir which is both utterly absorbing and truly moving. The Two Himalayas is an amazing story which speaks directly to the reader and touches upon aspects of individual experience with which many will identify.
