John Crocker reading and book signing

Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum
Atlanta, GA

Wednesday, May 30, 2018 - 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. EDT

John Crocker discusses and signs his book "Following Fifi: My Adventures Among Wild Chimpanzees: Lessons from our Closest Relatives." As a young student, Crocker embarked on the adventure of a lifetime, spending eight months in the Gombe forest working with Jane Goodall. He followed families of wild chimpanzees from sunrise to sunset and learned the fundamental behavioral traits of these chimps as they raised their offspring. His book asks thought-provoking questions about the evolution of human behavior and the importance of patience and strong family bonds, and provides a greater understanding of what it means to be human.
