I find it interesting how Amazon.com reviews from readers who have actually read the book find the book to be an excellent piece of literature. Well documented and properly pieced together to make a great story.

But almost every negative review is from people who have personal relations to T. Crutchfield

From how I see it no one who read the book actually sees it as a book about the evils of smugglers “Tom and Hank” but more as a great story of nonfiction writing.

I can’t believe those kids on that forum. With no respect to a grown woman. They haven’t even read the book and formed their own biased opinion just because TC says the book is against the reptile industry. It’s about as ignorant as the person who hates snakes because they’re so biased against them.

What a sad and pathetic industry the exotic animal trade has become.
