Behind the foreign-sounding author's name stands a man born in Estonia, whose fate, and likely also a thirst for adventure, cast him across several continents and countries. There aren't many Estonians who served in the French Foreign Legion; those who participated on the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War are more numerous, but perhaps only a rare few returned from Franco's prisons. The author describes his almost unbelievable life events in a factual, colorful manner, sometimes with pleasant humor, sometimes with bitter irony
