"'Dark Sun' is the remarkable story of self-confessed 'vagabond' George Dibbern. Following internment on Soames Island in Wellington Harbour in Worl…d War 1, he returned to his native Germany where for ten years he struggled unsuccessfully to find employment and to adapt to the role of husband and father. In 1930, with his thirty-two foot ketch, Te Rapunga, he broke free from the impending scourge of Nazism, and the conventions and constraints of society. He was to roam the Pacific for the next thirty years - interrupted only by a second internment on Soames Island in World War II - and died in Auckland in 1962 while preparing to return to his wife and three daughters in Germany. 'My life is one with the sea. We respect eah other and I have no other master,' he once said. He also maintained he answered solely to his own conscience, whose judgement was stricter than any statute of law.' If you live in harmony with life,' he wrote, 'life will take care of you.'" - from blurb on front flap. Very Good No dust jacket as issued.
