Review Summary: Deeply enchanting
Date: 2006-05-23
Details: I received this wonderful book from Stan Brock himself after volunteering with RAM for about a year. I found it to be a deeply rich book filled with stories that explain much of why Stan started RAM and why he returns to Guyana several times each year. Written in a delightful tone that reflects Stan's own understated sense of humor, the book is a page-turner that leaves you feeling as though the time you spent reading it was not wasted in any way.
Review Summary: Great!

Details: After participating in the most recent RAM trip to Guyana, this was a wonderful book to read and enjoy. Mr. Brock was great to work with. I wish that I had read his book before traveling to this wonderful country and visiting the Dadanawa Ranch.

Details: I read this book over a couple days while waiting for my students to test for their pilot's liscenses. The pilot examiner is a close friend to Stan Brock and he suggested I read it.
