An American who cannot afford to live in his own house escapes to Panam???. Finds himself in Heaven - a beautiful land with wonderful people - but finds corrosive civilization coming ever nearer this fragile alien world.In this travel memoir, novelist James David Audlin tells of his adventures in one of the world's last frontier lands.

But it will not last much longer.
