Harold Stephens
He has been a stand-in for
Marlon Brando in Mutiny on the Bounty. He's climbed the
Matterhorn and he even briefly joined forces with one of Sir Edmund
Hillary's climbing teams. He was imprisoned by the Chinese
Communists and escaped by swimming to a passing junk. He's driven a
motorcycle across Australia, a jeep across Russia and hitchhiked and
then driven a land cruiser around the world. He's sailed the major
seas of the world and still found time to write over 20 books!
