A True Story of an Attempt to Circumnavigate Australia by Kayak

About
"You mad bastards. You mad bloody bastards."
The challenge? Paddle a kayak around Australia.
As Eric Stiller and Tony Brown would discover, the attempt would be a fascinating, frustrating, maddening, and at times hilarious crawl around what many consider the most beautiful but treacherous coastline in the world. Swamped by high waves and rain, hampered by faulty technology, blown off course, baked by a broiling sun or chilled by sub-zero temperatures, battling loneliness and exhaustion-and sometimes each other-it would be the most demanding emotional and physical challenge either had ever attempted.
In short, it was the adventure of a lifetime!
Keep Australia on Your Left is a story of friendship forged-and sustained-under demanding circumstances. It is also the personal portrait of Eric Stiller's journey around a continent...and into himself.

A highly dangerous undertaking that would eventually bring Tony and Eric to the brink of
