Follow his journey as a Jewish boy in 1930s Germany, through his harrowing escape on Kristallnacht to his new home in America where he serve his adopted country as an intelligence officer negotiating with head hunters in Papua New Guinea during World War II. His encounters with notable personalities during the defining dramas of the twentieth century are adventures reserved for a chosen few, and he infuses them all with the flora and landscapes that a less impassioned eye would dismiss.

Presentation for the San Mateo County Libraries: Tales on Bay Area Trails! Knowing the stories of the trail and land around you can make your next hike even more of an adventure!

I was very excited about this presentation, so much so I got lost in the dozens of tales towards the end (and had to be careful not to spend days and days preparing for I!). Nonetheless, I had a great time sharing these wonderful and provocative stories!

Some of these stories are featured in my current hiking books. Others will appear in my 2022 guide to: Ocean Hikes in the Greater Bay Area!

Enjoy!
