Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Breath of the Jungle Curtis, the American consul, took this story down in longhand the day I staggered into his office. And Curtis believed it, too. He brought me round to his club, bought me a meal and a peg of brandy, gave me a suit of drill and a hand-shake that nearly cracked my knuckles. "Don´t tell it too often when you get back to our country," he said. "Why?" I asked. Curtis laughed grimly and looked about him. "Well, they wouldn´t get the atmosphere," he said, "and atmosphere is everything when it comes to believing a story. If you told that yarn in a club on Fifth Avenue - No, I´m wrong. They´d believe you! The darn thing drips truth!" That was a compliment from Curtis. He doubted everybody, but he believed me.
