Sharks, Fights and Motorbikes: When it rains in Egypt
When your two-week foreign holiday all goes horribly wrong
A rare and firsthand insight of the deadly multiple Red Sea shark attacks and the Egyptian revolution of 2011. Learn how stunned holidaymakers and ex-pat residents survived this tourism-busting, double-whammy of a showstopper that brought the region to its knees.
John Kean was a journalist and scuba instructor living in Sharm el Sheikh during these two headline-grabbing events. He saw and recorded everything. His inside accounts are given here for the first time. The book also features his epic 5,000km motorcycle and diving trip around Egypt in the aftermath of the people's revolution.
While occasionally tragic, this enlightening story includes the huge helpings of comedy that are never far away when Middle East meets West in Egypt… especially when riding a motorbike or deep underwater with scuba gear. You won’t find a more accurate and close-to-the-action account of these major events. Read it now before it's banned.
John Kean remains one of the most informed of writers of Red Sea diving and everything that goes with it... a must read. - Diver Magazine
