About this title

Synopsis

Retiring to live on a group of islands off the Caribbean coast of Panama, the author humorously describes how he learned through experience, from the first essential of handling a boat without danger to himself and others to his ultimate achievement of establishing an organic farm on the shore of a distant lagoon. Interspersed with vignettes of the local culture, the account gives an insight to the challenges facing Gringos when pursuing dreams of life on a tropical island.

Covering a span of six years from the beginnings of the growth of a tourist industry to a time when the islands were clearly destined to become a major tourist destination, Don�t Kill the Cow Too Quick records a passing era.

From the Publisher

Informative, hilarious and spritually enriching.
An inspiration for those who reach middle age with dreams yet to be fulfilled.
