Following the popularity of his first book, Monkeys Are Made of Chocolate, Jack Ewing shares 40 new essays of his insights and observations into the interconnectedness of life in Costa Rica, a place of constant change. For over 50 years, author Jack Ewing has immersed himself in the ecology and restoration of this tropical environment. Read about the mango-throwing monkeys in the forest, a little screech owl found in his office, the battle with Africanized bees, challenges of snake bites, the ocelot 'factory' on Hacienda Baru, the King of the Jungle - a vulture, and strange, creeper cats found on their doorstep. Along the way, meet a few fascinating individuals, including the Goldwalker, Patrick O'Connell, and the first gringo in Dominical, Thomas J. Brower. In the final essay Jack shares a bit of wisdom he received back in the 1970s from an old-timer: wherever you go, take a flashlight and a roll of toilet paper and you'll survive.
