    About this audiobook

    A fantastic story that takes you on a rollercoaster of an adventure through the African bush and beyond. - The Watermark Press


    Jack of All Trades is about the early life of wildlife expert, fisherman, and raconteur par excellence Jack Mudd, covering his school days and early adventures in mining and construction to a major period of his seagoing days.

    The book provides a wonderful series of vivid descriptions, humorous incidents, and striking portraits of humanity at large in Jack's inimitable style of South African English. A true reflection of days when men were men and the lions were nervous.
