Simon Murray

    Tento autor zdieľa svoje neuveriteľné životné skúsenosti ako dobrodruh a podnikateľ. Jeho cesta od tínedžerského rekrúta v cudzineckej légii, kde sa stretol s drsnou realitou vojny, až po vedenie vplyvných spoločností v juhovýchodnej Ázii, je svedectvom jeho odvahy a odhodlania. Neskôr, v pokročilom veku, prekonal sám seba dosiahnutím Južného pólu, čím sa stal najstarším človekom, ktorý tam dorazil bez podpory. Napriek týmto impozantným úspechom považuje za svoj najväčší triumf manželstvo, ktoré trvá už 43 rokov.
