In this dynamic travel narrative, some of Africa's foremost professional guides reveal their take on the safari experience. From elephant-back safaris and walks in the bush to travels within the protective confines of a vehicle, the guides tell stories of how they roamed the countryside, journeying to locales such as Botswana, Sabi Sands, and Soit Orgoss in northern Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Through their colorful biographies and amusing and hair-raising anecdotes—including encounters with wounded buffalo and dramatic escapades with elephants—these fiercely independent professionals provide insight into their dedication and passion, offering an ad hoc appraisal of the evolution of the safari business into a sophisticated industry. A selection of drawings and photographs and background information on the lodges where these individuals are based further illuminate their surroundings.

Twenty-four safari guides are profiled by experienced safari travel promoter, Susie Cazenove. She tells us their stories of adventure and dreams – of following their passion into the wild and of making their guests see Africa in a new light. Read of the antics of the guides in the early days of Londolozi, of guests having to cling to trees in the face of charging rhinos, of safaris with Mary Leaky and legends of the Masai warriors. The tales tell of a wilderness under increasing threat and these guides’ determination to share the privilege of a truly wild experience with their guests. The stories take the reader from South Africa to Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya and Namibia in search of legendary safari guides.

9 April 1960 was the day that changed Susie Cazenove's life - the day her father, David Pratt, shot the Prime Minister of South Africa, Dr Hendrik Verwoerd. Verwoerd, commonly known as the architect of apartheid, didn't die, but Pratt's family lived with the legacy of his action.Caezenove has put pen to paper to describe the extraordinary events of that day and its consequences. Part family memoir, part ode to the settlement of Johannesburg, Cazenove skilfully weaves her family history and the mood in South Africa in the 1950s and 60s as a background to what may have led her father, a farmer and gentle man, to commit a treasonous act.
