Download or read book Box of Frogs written by Iain Hollis and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, Iain Hollis embarked on a 4,000 mile solo cycling adventure around Europe. Medically retired with a broken ankle, after spending 23 years in the police, the 46-year-old former Royal Marine Commando spent 95 days on the road. Towing a trailer loaded with kit, his travels took him from France, over the Austrian Alps and right down to the Black Sea in Bulgaria. Camping each night in any available cover and cooking on a portable stove, he witnessed all kinds of things. The return route through Ukraine, Poland and Estonia culminated with a ferry crossing to Sweden before he flew home after an epic journey spanning 26 countries. The ride was a kind of self-help therapy to a troubled individual. Rejected by his mum after his parents’ divorce and cruelly abused by his stepmother, Iain was placed in a children’s home at the age of 7. From a long-term foster home, he joined the Marines at 16 and recalls his experiences in the desert, jungle and Arctic. He even shared a landing craft with Prince Philip and got a part as a movie extra, playing a German in Indiana Jones. At 21, he joined the police, got married and had kids, but his traumatic childhood caused a near breakdown and his career took a bumpy ride with a suspension from duty and a daunting court trial. Subsequently getting his new life seemingly on track, Iain took up marathon running and won the 2000 London fancy dress. He went on to compete on three more occasions but this new hobby was cut short following his ankle break in 2003. Unable to run, his journeys to work by boat soon earned him fame as the ‘canoeing cop’. With a gradual deterioration in the ankle and after failed surgery, he came close to self-amputation. Box of Frogs: Memoirs of a Canoeing Cyclist is a fascinating autobiography that will take you on Iain’s globe-trotting rollercoaster ride of life so far. It will appeal to those who enjoy true stories and tales of overcoming adversity and strife.

Book excerpt: SHORTLISTED FOR THE KINDLE STORYTELLER AWARD 2018 One corpse. Several bizarre looking attackers. Some very strange magical powers. And a severe bout of amnesia. It's one thing to wake up outside in the middle of the night with a decapitated man for company. It's another to have no memory of how you got there - or who you are. She might not know her own name but she knows that several people are out to get her. It could be because she has strange magical powers seemingly at her fingertips and is some kind of fabulous hero. But then why does she appear to inspire fear in so many? And who on earth is the sexy, green-eyed barman who apparently despises her? So many questions ... and so few answers. At least one thing is for sure - the streets of Manchester have never met someone quite as mad as Madrona... Be warned. This is book one of a new laugh-out-loud urban fantasy trilogy that encourages snorts and sniggers, and which contains an edge of your seat cliffhanger!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

A single gram of the toxin produced by the skin of the Golden Poison Frog can kill 100,000 people. Male Darwin’s Frogs carry their tadpoles in their vocal sacs for sixty days before coughing them out into the world. The Wood Frogs of North America freeze every winter, reanimating in the spring from the glucose and urea that prevent cell collapse. The Book of Frogs commemorates the diversity and magnificence of all of these creatures, and many more. Six hundred of nature’s most fascinating frog species are displayed, with each entry including a distribution map, sketches of the frogs, species identification, natural history, and conservation status. Life-size color photos show the frogs at their actual size—including the colossal seven-pound Goliath Frog. Accessibly written by expert Tim Halliday and containing the most up-to-date information, The Book of Frogs will captivate both veteran researchers and amateur herpetologists. As frogs increasingly make headlines for their troubling worldwide decline, the importance of these fascinating creatures to their ecosystems remains underappreciated. The Book of Frogs brings readers face to face with six hundred astonishingly unique and irreplaceable species that display a diverse array of adaptations to habitats that are under threat of destruction throughout the world. “If you are a serious (and I mean serious) fan of the frog, you are in for a real treat.” —Boing Boing
