Autorenporträt
A native Californian, Phil Deutschle is currently teaching in Salinas California. The author's other adventures have included cycling across the Kalahari and Namib deserts, getting captured by pirates while canoeing down the Congo River, hunting with Bushmen, and falling through a crevasse while ice climbing unroped in the Andes. Currently living in Salinas California, teaching physics and astronomy, he says "I have never owned a car, which makes me a true counter-culture freak in the US."
