They say that a person is never truly educated until he travels. Michael Wright is a man of many talents who has traveled the world in search of adventure. He is not a typical tourist who tours the sites. "People are far more interesting than any scenery I could ever look at.", he always says. In 1995, Michael Wright joined the U.S. Peace Corps as a volunteer in the island nation of Kiribati (formerly known as The Gilbert Islands). Little did he know that he would become as he puts it, "an accidental author" and end up writing the most complete, informative and comprehensive dictionary to translate I-Kiribati and English.
