Steve & Me by Terri Irwin

Steve & Me by Terri Irwin lands on the |> SALE <| shelves in my shop.

Simon & Schuster, 2007, Hardback in dust wrapper.

Illustrated by way of: Colour Photographs;

From the cover: "When Terri Raines was twenty-seven years old, she took a holiday that changed her life. Leaving behind her wildlife rescue work in the United States, Terri travelled to Australia and there, at a small wildlife park, she met and fell in love with a tall, blond force of nature named Steve Irwin. They were married in less than a year, and Terri eagerly joined in Steve's conservation work. The footage filmed on their crocodile-trapping honeymoon became the first episode of The Crocodile Hunter, and together, Steve and Terri began to change the world.

In Steve & Me, Terri recounts the unforgettable adventures they shared — wrangling venomous snakes, saving deadly crocodiles from poachers, swimming among humpback whales. A uniquely gifted naturalist, Steve was first and foremost a wildlife warrior dedicated to rescuing endangered animals — especially his beloved crocs — and educating everyone he could reach about the importance of conservation. In the hit TV shows that continue to be broadcast worldwide, Steve's enthusiasm lives on, bringing little-known and often-feared species to light as he reveals and revels in the wonders of our planet.

With grace, wit and candour, Terri Irwin portrays her husband as he really was — a devoted family man, a fervently dedicated environmentalist, a modest bloke who spoke to millions on behalf of those who could not speak for themselves. Steve & Me is a non-stop adventure, a real-life love story and a fitting tribute to a man adored by all those whose lives he touched, written by the woman who knew and loved him best of all."
