Elephants, Rhino's and a zoo in a war zone!
These are your summer time Must Reads
It is summer time and we hope to spend many lazy days just hanging about enjoying the glorious much awaited and much needed warmer weather. "Especially if you live in the Northern Hemisphere".
Grab a comfy chair, a cuppa tea if you must or glass of wine, curl up for an afternoon, a day, a week or a couple of months, of the most (I promise) fabulous reading bliss.
Below is a brief description of 3 magnificently written books that will take you on a journey into three different parts of the world. Written descriptively and with a great sense of humour and passion, you will meet interesting characters, shed a tear or two (sorry), smile with delight, learn about a rescue I bet you never heard anything about and discover a world some of us may never get to see or experience (living within close contact of a rogue elephant herd and the challenges one can face with African communities and wild Africa).
Books for animal lovers, autobiography readers and lover's of Africa "the elephant whisperer", The Last Rhinoceros and Babylon's Ark - by Lawrence Anthony with Graham Spence
All these stories are about "the Indiana Jones" of conservation Lawrence Anthony all the way from Thula Thula Game Reserve in Kwa Zulu Natal, Southern Africa. Stories about Africa "life, loyalty and freedom of a remarkable herd of elephants" (the elephant whisperer), taking action and negotiating with one of the most dangerous men on earth to save the last northern white rhino's living in the Congo (The Last Rhino's) to the "incredible wartime rescue of the Baghdad Zoo" (Babylon's Ark).
