Inked inscription on front free endpaper, edges slightly foxed, dustjacket worn, protected by a previous owner, otherwise a good copy. "Following the extremely successful book 'Tropical Quest', Derek Townsend set out on another journey - this time to explore the Orient. Onc…e again his travels have been long and thorough, enabling him to capture the true atmosphere and excitement of the mystic east. Many critics have commented on his acute observation and forthright style - "as a truly professional writer he has learned the advantages of calling a spade, a spade. If he encounters a four letter object he uses the four letter word to describe it. Scenic or other beauty is painted with his pen in titivating detail arousing all the senses. Pertinent facts are always incorporated in an entertaining manner and cleverly blended with humour and anecdotal incidents." 'Eastern Quest' is no exception, and Derek Townsend utilises his known talen to thrill armchair travellers, who will find in this latest book a vivid, vital and exhilarating picture of India, Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan." (Publisher's description).
