I really enjoyed reading about the field work in a tropical rainforest with out being sujected to the leeches!
A true story of the every day struggles of an american graduate student working in the rainforests of Far North Queensland.
He has to face living and working in a small country town at a time of extreme tension as the area is considered for World Heritage Listing.
This narrative is written with honesty, candour and a good dose of humour!
