Tim Plummer didn’t need to seek adventure—adventure went looking for him.
It is 1993, two years since the Iron Curtain fell. Lieutenant Colonel Tim Plummer is headed to Russia. He isn’t going to Russia on a military mission, however. He is hoping to reunite with an old friend—the Soviet officer who saved his life in the Sinai Desert during the cease-fire that followed the 1973 Yom Kippur War.
The incredible true story behind his friendship with the Soviet officer is just one of the remarkable adventures Tim Plummer experienced during his military career. His “never back down” spirit will inspire readers as he talks about crossing Siberia during the height of the Cold War, getting trapped in a coal mine collapse in East Ukraine, sailing treacherous waters to Tasmania, climbing the Cheops pyramid after midnight, and other amazing feats. His assignments frequently took him away from his wife, Kathleen, and their four children; and Unnecessary Risks: A Memoir of Adventureis written for them and those who choose to join him on his travels.
Plummer’s adventurous nature is infectious, and readers everywhere will thrill at the chance to travel alongside him.
