Follow Boone and Crockett Club member W. Douglas Burden and his wife on their expedition to Dutch East Indies in the 1920s in search of what many considered direct descendants of dinosaurs and what others thought may be true dragons--the impressive and fierce Komodo dragon. Not only did their party find the giant lizards, they were able harvest many for display in museums as well as capture live specimens, which became a tourist attraction in New York City. Much like the movie King Kong, which was inspired by Burden's book.
