This plan failed to take into account some key facts about hippos: they are savage, they are fast, and their jaws can snap a man in two. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy the 1890s, the vast bayou that was once America's greatest waterway belongs to feral hippos, and Winslow Houndstooth has been contracted to take it back. To do so, he will gather a crew of the damnedest cons, outlaws, and assassins to ever ride a hippo. \u003ci\u003eAmerican Hippo\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of their fortunes, their failures, and his revenge.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHugo and Campbell award finalist Sarah Gailey is an internationally published writer of fiction and nonfiction.
