Review from the publisher

Thor Heyerdahl - we know him as a scientist, explorer and adventurer, the man behind Kon-Tiki, the Ra voyages, the Tigris, the excavations on Easter Island and the Maldives, the pyramids in Tucume and Tenerife. But who is Thor Heyerdahl?
In this memoir, Thor Heyerdahl describes an adventurous life in which personal experiences and experiences - childhood and growing up, secret mission in Finnmark during the war, a series of dramatic episodes when he put his life on the line, conflicts with scientists - are woven together with his thoughts and views on religious faith, politics, ideology, nature conservation, as well as his relationship with a wide range of state leaders, including Saddam Hussein, Fidel Castro and Mikhail Gorbachev. In Adam's Footsteps is a strong personal encounter with a living legend.
