Peter Alden Book Signing: My Wild Life

About the book: From the jungles of New Guinea to the plains of Tanzania, one man’s lifelong quest to see the world’s rarest birds became a journey through the heart of our planet’s wild places. As a pioneer of ecotourism, he led travelers across continents long before GPS and guidebooks, facing snakes in the Amazon, lions in camp, and more than a few brushes with danger—all in pursuit of wonder. Part memoir, part travelogue, this story recounts decades of adventures, discovery, and brushes with danger.
