A RIVETING, HANDS-ON ADVENTURE WITH THE WORLD'S DEADLIEST SNAKES, RECOUNTED BY ONE OF TODAY'S MOST ORIGINAL TRAVEL WRITERS. Snakes are Jeremy Seal's fascination - and his greatest fear. In an attempt to overcome his phobia, he journeyed deep into Africa, Australia, India, and America in search of some of the world's most notorious and venomous serpents and the people who live among them. The result is an exhilirating combination of travelogue, social history, and powerful personal exploration. The jacket has some scuffing on the front and back. The top back is bent out a bit. 336 pages, including bibliography and index. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
