In 1955 Janet Haack flew off from Wisconsin with her new husband, Don, in their two-seater Piper Super Cub named "Grasshopper." Headed for British Guiana, South America, they would set up a diamond-mining operation and their home in the wilds on the remote border, the Ireng River, 250 miles from the coast where they had a daughter and a son.

It’s the woman’s point of view of the life described by Don's book, Bush Pilot in Diamond Country.

This book was selected as the April book of the month by the Charlotte Weekly News.
