Camel Crazy
Author: Christina Adams
Publisher: New World Library
ISBN: 1608686493
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In this page-turning odyssey, a mother on a mission travels the globe — from Bedouin camps in the Middle East to Amish farms in Pennsylvania to camel-herder villages in India — to obtain camel milk, which dramatically helps her son’s autism symptoms. Chronicling bureaucratic roadblocks, adventure-filled detours, and Christina Adams’s love-fueled determination, Camel Crazy explores why camels are cherished as family members and hailed as healers. Adams’s work uncovers studies of camel milk for possible treatment of autism, allergies, diabetes, and immune dysfunction, as well as ancient traditions of healing. But the most fascinating aspect of Adams’s discoveries is the gentle-eyed, mischievous camels themselves. Huge and often unpredictable, they are amazingly intelligent and adaptable. This moving and rollicking ode to “camel people” and the creatures they adore reveals the ways camels touch lives around the world. Includes users’ and buyers’ guides to camel’s milk

Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
The key interest in the book is the interaction between tour group members on escorted tours, the destinations we visited and my, as a tour manager, view of it all. It is based on real experiences and real people. The book is not chronological and can be read a little at a time or front to back. It is somewhat a travel log. Camels to Caviar helps you look at situations adventures and the people I dealt with from Kathmandu to Timbuktu. It portrays thirty years of my tour managing exotic and adventurous experiences. I also write of the personal growth as I worked through these tours. Nothing was ever the same and the learning curve was there up to my day of retirement. It became a lifestyle, living in a cocoon of self banishment. The characters and names are real as are the travel incidents. If it weren't for all the norms, personalities, unknowns and disasters; the flights, cruise ship calamities and hotel horrors, there wouldn't be "Camels to Caviar". You will read about: tanks surrounding our hotel in Lima altitude sickness at Mt Everest, scenery foods and cultures around the world how a tour manager performs, how I handle the behind the scenes procedures the psychology and behavior of passengers and myself romances on the road sunset in the Sahara Cambodia after Pol Pot Mr. Bill in New Zealand the Maharaja of Baroda interesting and outrageous passengers snip its of the countries we traveled in royal family shockers I give you a vision of the fun and adventure during an escorted tour, as well as an insight to the personalities and unexpected circumstances. This all truly happens on escorted tours around the world. You will be amused and surprised in this tell all of how a tour manager functions during a tour and some of the almost breaking points of our "glamorous" job. Working on cruise ships brought a different type of tour group dynamics and demographics. What happened on board gave tour managing a different edge. I hope this will give you an insight to the intensity, personal journey and joy of my tour manager career. www.camelstocaviar.com
