What's Left of Me - Hardcover

The transition from Zimbabwe to Beverly Hills, Michigan would be challenging for anyone, even for those with advantage. So with no money, no job and no arm, Paul Templer faced more than the usual obstacles. As his story reveals, with an acute sense of what is possible, Paul tackled his pursuit of the American dream with the same determination he used to fight the rogue hippo that almost took his life. And he was victorious in both battles.
His story begins as a nine-year old Rhodesian boy wrestling a lion cub, trying to make sense of a very complicated world. His aversion to settling down and getting a proper job leads him around the globe from the streets of London to the farmlands of Israel, including a brief but interesting interlude in India. He finds himself back in Africa later in life, leading safaris along the Zambezi River with as strong a sense of adventure as he exhibited in his earlier years. Then, on one average but fateful day, he had an experience that would change his life forever. His next and continuing adventure has brought periods of self-doubt, triumphs, gratitude and unpredictability only the Zambezi River could ever hope to match. With the love and support of family and friends, Paul shows us how he made the impossible possible, and shines a light on how it's achievable to all of us.
