Standing on My Head: Adventures of a Zookeeper Down Under

Hans E.A. Boos, born and raised in Trinidad, West Indies, is a well known field naturalist and herpetologist. Hans for twenty-five years was the Curator of the Emperor Valley Zoo in Port of Spain. In this book, Standing On My Head, he tells about his experiences-some life threatening, some downright hilarious, all fascinating-at the Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Australia, which appointment gave him the knowledge necessary to lead the Trinidad zoo so successfully for so many years.
