Untold Passages compiles gripping accounts of true and rare encounters while traveling to extraordinary and challenging places around the world. Through short stories, Jean Hee Chough - a 45 year travel veteran - lets us experience out of the ordinary incidents like growing up in war-torn Korea, being shadowed by Soviet spies in the former USSR, being caught in the dispute between the U.K and Spain, facing a seven-hour blockade on a bridge over the Danube, being subjected to detention by the Outer Mongolian police, being part of "history in the making" riding Harleys from Tiananmen Square to the Great Wall of China, being escorted and followed by agents of the totalitarian government of Turkmenistan - just to name a few! This is a memoir of a true pioneer who, in 1967, set his mind to follow the American dream.
