Vividly written by a man who served as Chief Game Warden in three African countries and Wildlife Advisor to two additional countries, this book on African wildlife was widely acclaimed when first published in 1972 and found its place on bestseller lists in several countries. It gives an inside prospective on the constant struggle to protect East Africa’s wildlife as well as thrilling stories of the author’s encounters with rogue elephants, buffalo and other dangerous animals. Words used to describe this book include “enlightening”, “entertaining”, and “fascinating”. It contains much thought-provoking content and is a great contribution to conservation. Many photos.
