Shedding light on Michael's fascinating and often dangerous upbringing, from escaping communist Russia as a child to crossing the forests of Manchuria on foot, The King of the Coral Sea explores the life and legacy of a real-life Tarzan, giving readers a never-before-seen glimpse into his personal Odyssey.
