For a musical sample of the poems contained in the books click on the link below for one of the songs that appears as a poem in Book 3, “The Songs and Verses”. The music was written and performed by the folk musician Paul Forest who Jim met in a bar in Calgary, Alberta, in 2000.
Caridian Press is a division of Caridian Group Inc, a company incorporated in Ontario, Canada, in March 2005.
Jim’s writings span over 40 years of experiential travel throughout the planet. He spent 36 of those years without permanent status in any land in which he lived during which time he wandered to over 70 countries and territories, sailed all but the Arctic and Southern Oceans, traveled on all the continents except Antarctica and Australasia, twice circumnavigated the globe, met the oldest known living animal in the world, danced with a Brazilian carnival procession, worked on farms during an insurgent war in Africa, was attacked by a rattle snake while hiking the Inca Trail, dived for sunken treasure in the Caribbean, experienced numerous hurricanes and, along with myriad other wonderful adventures, been utterly broke in more places than most people ever dream of seeing in a lifetime…… And through it all he wrote.
Caridian Press then was developed as the medium through which those writings could be channelled and published. This website is being developed, an on-going process, to provide the focal point for information and communication related to that endeavour. There is also a Facebook group conceived for the same purpose which can be found (and joined) if you search for “Wanderings and Sojourns“ which is, appropriately, the title of the series of books Jim has written and will keep writing about his life of unusual travel.
Wander round the pages linked in the menu to the right to find out more about the books, related events and Jim’s travels. And PLEASE SIGN THE GUEST BOOK ………
