In Global Nomad, Tom shares his early free-wheeling life with its exciting cities and colorful personalities, and his extraordinary post-accident return to The Bridge to Venice Rule—racing in marathons, traveling solo in some of the poorest countries in the world, meeting the Dalai Lama, jamming with jazz great Oscar Klein, holding disability seminars, and starting the International Rehabilitation Forum with his physician brother, Andy. In the process, he bares the unvarnished aftermath and heartbreaking vulnerabilities that follow permanent paralysis, and inspires us all to take risks and live remarkable, generous, lives. “Tom Haig has led an amazing life, and he is still living it. This ‘Global Nomad’ meets interesting people as he overcomes challenges that might frighten an Olympian. Tom and his life are an inspiration!”--John Naber, Olympic swimming champion, network broadcaster, author and speaker Purchase Here!
