The honey badger [by] Robert Ruark.

By: Robert Chester (1915-1965) Ruark

Robert Chester Ruark was one of the mid-20th centuries "larger-than-life" characters: journalist, author, world traveller and big game hunter and in this, his last work, it is impossible to fathom where Ruark finishes and Alex Barr, the principal character starts. In "The Honey Badger", first published(posthumously) in 1965, Ruark - thru his hero -searches for a purpose to his existence in a tapestry encompassing the restaurants of New York, thru wartime London to the plains of Africa. And just what isa honey badger? A mean little animal which, when cornered, attacks straight for the balls!! Immensely readable. Robert Ruark tells a story like no other. His dialogue and interface between characters is beyond belief. This is probably the best book (just a mite better than Poor No More) by one of the best authors of all time. too bad he died at an early age before he was able to create more books.
