Tim Cahill learns many valuable life lessons along the way in a remarkable collection of hilarious journeys, such as: how to drink with the Aussies (trying to match them beer for beer is not a good idea); a method for developing acute claustrophobia (crawling on your belly for two weeks in total darkness while exploring the world's deepest cave); and the best way to take a nap while observing a grizzly bear at close range. He also finds time to assist the English police with their enquiries, after his fleeting involvement with the Dangerous Sports Club. With great wit and excitement, 'Pecked to Death by Ducks' delivers vicarious thrills so vivid you'll feel like you're there - but be glad that you're not.
