Dear Friend,
Since I retired I have spent much of my time trying to protect and save endangered
animals, mainly in Africa. What I have found is shocking and disgusting; not only are
elephants and rhino being slaughtered on an industrial scale for their tusks and horns,
there is now a large number of rich people (Donald Trump's son included) who believe
they have the right to roam the world and slaughter these magnificent animals for fun.
It has to stop! and to this end I have researched & written a short novel which exposes
these vile and perverse practices (Rare Earth). It is not a 'nice' book, it's quite
harrowing and there were times when I wrote some chapters it upset me. It may well do
the same you. Sorry if it does, but sadly the reality is evenworse and not only is it
happening daily, the numbers are increasing. I'm trying to do my best with others to
stop it, but I need money; the only way to expose these rich elite scum is through media
exposure and that costs money.
I am trying to fund my activities through the sale of my novel and every penny it makes
I give to charities working in this area. Could I please ask you that if you hold similar
views, please buy my book (you don't have to read it) and please pass this on to your
fellow LinkedIn contacts and encourage them to do the same.
Rare Earth can be purchased through Lulu at http://www.lulu.com/shop/colin-p-
smith/rare-earth/ebook/product-21624510.html
And through Amazon at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rare-Earth-Colin-P-
Smith/dp/1483411931 where it has just been awarded its fifth 5 star review.
Please feel free to contact me for more information.
Many thanks for your help and compassion.
