He did not realize that the Barclays were on the verge of an incredible dangerous adventure, nor that they would leave behind, in small native village in Pakistan a part of their heart.
An expert agronomist, Glenn's assignment is to see if elephants can be adapted to modern agricultural uses. He learns about tracking down, capturing and training Wild Elephants, a fascinating lore centuries old.

Tue cub Sarang soon becomes a beloved playmate....... ...
