About

This book tells the story of the author's pursuit of establishing a shark-fishing business in the Seychelles.

Far out in the Indian Ocean lie the lonely islands of the Seychelles and around them are scattered the sun warmed shallows that are the breeding grounds for giant sharks of many species. To these fabulous banks came William Travis, drawn thither by the lure of adventure as offered by the life of a shark-fisherman.

This book tells of his battles with the shark, of men crippled and gear smashed, of storms and cyclones and the daily risks such fishermen run who venture far from land in small boats.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, maps and diagrams.
Portrait on title page.
