Raised together in a small German circus town, Modoc, the elephant, and Bram, his faithful boyhood companion and later trainer, formed a bond that lasted their entire lives. It was an extraordinary friendship that was tested time and again until, in the late 1930s, after years of adventure, they made their voyage to America. It was there that they finally reached international stardom as a major circus headline act. But their story was not over. Modoc was sold behind Bram's back and vanished for more than 20 years. What followed was a heart-wrenching, astonishing series of events that will have all who read this unforgettable book riveted to every page, utterly in love with Modoc, the greatest elephant that ever lived.
