Explanation As Books The Perennial Wanderer: An American in the World
Many authors, in satisfying the reading public’s insatiable need for escapist literature, invest much time and money in their efforts. Don’t get me wrong—I read that literature myself. Why not? It is usually entertaining, if not suspenseful. In The Perennial Wanderer: An American in the World, however, it is my intent to demonstrate that life is indeed stranger than fiction, and I, not unlike the escapist writers, have invested much time and energy in bringing these life experiences to the reader. After working in so many countries—including war torn and conflictive countries such as Viet Nam, Colombia, Perú, Mozambique, Sudan and El Salvador—I have seen more than my share of violence, murder, mayhem, public corruption and chicanery. And none of my observations have taken place as a military man—my military experience, by the way, was in the peacetime Air Force in the beautiful Hawaiian Islands.Be Specific About Books Supposing The Perennial Wanderer: An American in the World

This is one hell of a travel memoir! Rather than a compendium of trekking or holiday destinations The Perennial Wanderer is something a little different. D Orrs initial experiences, and a taste for wandering began in the military, then expands out afterwards while still journeying as a civilian. With 75 countries visited by D Orr there is no shortage of experience to cram in here, and it isnt all nice and pleasant, but also a taste of the more cruel side of humanity experienced along the way.This comprehensive and groundbreaking book reveals the historical and present-day confluence of Scottish and American events that led to the eventual union of Clan MacKinnon and Clan Orr.
