A book that I recently acquired for the purposes of giving it away.

A collection of articles written by Cahill for Outdoor magazine (of which he was one of the founding editors) and covering the entire gamut: How to effectively use a survival guide when stranded in the wilderness (light it on fire for a smoke signal/warmth); the joys of diving with sharks; finding unknown ruins in the Andes; hang-gliding; skydiving; sitting on Mount St. Helen's waiting for the eruption and going back after the eruption scouting for the dead; the slaughter of sea turtles in Mexico. Some of the articles were funny, some poignant, some just interesting. However, contrary to the impression conveyed by the title, the author was not mauled by jaguars -- there were no actual jaguars in the book as written, just the discussion of a theoretical possibility when he was in the Andes.

This book is going to meet-up with me and hopefully going home with someone else.

Title caught my eye and I was hooked.

A fun series of travel adventure stories. Some sounds like tall tales but are eminently believable. You learn bit about exotic cultures but also your own.
To be released upon arrival in Mrytle Beach, South Carolina over Memorial Day week 2023.

One of many jammed into box.
