Books By Terry Lister - Author

Today l am a traveller and a writer. I wasn't always! In fact, in my exciting adult life l have been a partner in Deloitte accounting firm, a Minister in the Government of Bermuda and a realtor. But most of all l wanted to be a traveller. I retired at 60 and have been a solo traveller for the past five years. I go on the road for eight weeks then home for eight and then back again. When l retired l had been to 44 countries but in the last five years l have been to 46 spending between one week and six weeks in the countries l go to. It has been some journey! My first book, Immersed in West Africa, tells the tale of eight adventure-filled weeks in five West African countries. Since then l have been to an additional 18 countries. But l am not always travelling. When l am relaxing l enjoy a good book, for me that means something that is historical and even better biographical. I would love to read other genres but whenever l am looking for new books there are enough in my area to keep me reading. Of course, my love for travel means l always have a few travel books on the go as preparation for my next trip. I do a lot of researching before l head out. I am looking to find those things that tourists either don’t do or don’t know about. Then with what little time l have left l am a sports fan- cricket and football being my games. So little time to be bored!
