About the Book

In 1972, two twenty-one year old Englishmen were sent by a strange religious sect to help the street dogs of Trinidad and became involved in an escapade so bizarre you could not have made it up.They arrived at the end of a State of Emergency, after an eventful sea voyage on a tramp steamer, without visas or work permits and travelling with a crate of drugs and guns. The Mayor of Port-of-Spain embroiled them in his re-election campaign and they soon became headline news, upsetting the Government in the process.Meanwhile they were put up in a house of ill-repute, were suspected of being spies and became involved in many adventures, meeting many characters along the way.Thwarted from doing the job they had been sent to do, they were left to spend several months exploring the magnificent deserted beaches and jungle and submerged themselves into Trinidad life and culture. Being young and enjoying the Tropics for the first time they soon found themselves suffering near fatal experiences and wildlife encounters.Their soujourn in Paradise though could not last for ever.....This is a Travelogue with a difference and the type of adventure that doesn't happen anymore.
About the Author: John Brookland has spent much of his time travelling the world attempting to help animals and watching them in the wild. He worked for the UK RSPCA in various capacities for many years and also as Chief Inspector of the Bahamas Humane Society in Nassau as well as in Trinidad. He spent seven years as Duty Manager and Animal Health Inspector at the Heathrow Airport Animal Quarantine Station. He was so appalled at the conditions animals were forced to travel under, that he travelled the world working for a Conservation group researching and documenting the capture and transport of wildlife. This resulted in a campaign to improve conditions. His first book "When cats got stuck up trees & pigeons fell down chimneys" documenting his time on the RSPCA was published in 2013. Now semi-retired and living in Essex with his partner Debbie, he still travels to exotic places on a regular basis.
