Interesting life told of a turtle and shark fisher in Seychelles

Been there recently, and found this book there, which tells of a british guy going to Seychelles to catch turtles first, sharks later as the captain of a small boat. Gave me some new insights to geology, biology and history of Seychelles as well as a few very interesting anecdotes, like the one with Ping Pong, the dead Chinese who started a gold rush on African Bar etc.
