And Another Thing ...


Second edition of CAMELOGUE now available!

All the camel adventures you never knew you were missing. It's a personal photographic chronicle of chasing camels in Arabic countries encumbered only by gender, age, opportunity, and gentle self-delusion. Arabic is a tad over-stated in that two of the countries are not ‒ the United States and the Netherlands. Highly recommended for lovers of animals and warm climates.

Most of the stories reflect the writer's pull to ancient civilizations. Strange, baking one's tender body in near-isolated deserts; entering sand and mountains that storied nomads have crossed since time began. Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, among others. Maybe you too can briefly lose yourself in a different world.





Some of the experiences were divine. Others were funny or disappointing, interacting with a variety of characters who tolerated this dilettante. Impersonating a world traveller is serious business. One must never stop smiling and inventing new sign language gestures. Some adventures first appeared on this blog and then on CamelDabble TravelBabble at https://camelchaser.blogspot.ca.




Now 110 pages, approximately half the book consists of edited past adventures; the rest is added adventures 2012‒2017. Created at and for sale on Blurb.com, $15.00 Canadian (less in USD equivalent). Link: http://www.blurb.com/b/8605379-camelogue
