Peter Hirsch, an avid and outspoken huntsman, is not a membner of foreign royalty or an industyrial king with a vast fortune. He is the owner and operator of a Kansas bookstore who makes frequent safaris to the premitive areas of Africa, India and the relatively unexplored fields of Alaska.

In THE LAST MAN IN PARADISE, he writes of his many and varried exoeriences - sometimes frightning, often humerous - with rare wit and insight, providing commentary on the fast moving world around him as well as on big game hunting and hunters.
