When Do the Lions Eat? - Paperback

by George Heiring (Author)

If you have a yen to experience different cultures and an appetite for humor and adventure, this buffet of fifty-eight short stories will be a feast for you. George Heiring brings to life six decades of travel to exotic locales on and off the world map, relating wild and wacky experiences and curious encounters that will keep a smile on your face as you turn the pages.

An award-winning storyteller, poet, and celebrated humorist, George transports you into the edgy, Stone Age environs of Irian Jaya, takes you trekking in foothills of the Himalayas, sends you racing downhill from the Inca ruins of Machu Picchu, and scales a thousand-foot sand dune in Namibia. Along the way, you will meet those with lifestyles far different from your own-a Paris bargeman, a Maasai warrior, a Red Army Colonel, a Seychellois mercenary, a Balinese woodcarver-all sharing unique tales that give their culture its shape and vitality.
