The tiger book is finally here!!!! I have published it officially this morning and both the Collectors and Standard editions are available from the online store, and this is the only place they are available at present. The book aims to raise funds for tiger conservation and is my first self published book. Anyway it is best to take a look at the online store where full information is given, including a look inside and customer testimonials. Priced at £25 for the standard edition and £89 for the collectors edition, a must for any animal lover worldwide.
