About This Book
Spanning several decades and three continents, Modoc is one of the most
amazing true animal stories ever told. Raised together in a small German
circus town, a boy and an elephant formed a bond that would last their
entire lives, and would be tested time and again; through a near-fatal
shipwreck in the Indian Ocean, an apprenticeship with the legendary
Mahout elephant trainers in the Indian teak forests, and their eventual
rise to circus stardom in 1940s New York City. Modoc is a captivating
true story of loyalty, friendship, and high adventure, to be treasured
by animal lovers everywhere.
