Buffeted by tempestuous forces of both personal and international affairs, he flees from the Jakarta mafia through the jungles of Borneo, is tear-gassed by riot police in Manila, and crosses an imploding Soviet Union by train, only to be abducted by a group of heavily-armed Serb militia.In these pages, recalled from diaries kept at the time, Stowers paints a harsh, humorous and very human picture of media life in Asia-and beyond-during the boom years of the early 1990's.

Stowers is a photojournalist and self-described nomad, and he has captured the time, the feel, and the smells especially of the out-of-the-way places with their crummy hotels and student flops. You will wish you were running alongside this peripatetic photojournalist.' - Marty Petersen, author of City of Lost Souls.…
