This true-life story of the author's adventures, from prawn fishing, diving the Great Barrier Reef, professonal yachtsman to hair-raising adventures down the Amazon and also in China, is an amazing read.

Full of excitement annd intrigue, this is the life of a man who has spent twenty-nine years on and in the sea; his greatest love.

This is a thought provoking must read, with one of the most profound and honest environmental messages written in a book of recent times.

The inclusion of poems, verses and letters in the appendices adds a great personal touch, and the beautiful spiritual ending leaves the words of "Chief Seattle" embedded in one's mind for a long time.

Not Mainstream is a work of non-fiction/memoir that recounts the extraordinary life of Rob Warring.

From his first taste of complete freedom while exploring the outback of Western Australia to his unrelenting passon for the sea, Rob's journey is one of excitement, risk-taking and tough lessons.

In his story he holds nothing back and opens up with honesty about his times in Asia and his brush with the subtle insidious world of drug use. A professional yachtsman, fisherman and diver, in the end the reader is inspired by the man he has become and the wisdom he has to share.

As with his first book The Boat Ride Home, this work includes and ends with profound environmental messsages of hope for our planet and the wildlife.

Again as the title suggests, the stories are in no particular order. Hence the name 'Random Events'. It is a work in proress,
