Böcker av Chris Burlock

Have you ever wanted to get away from it all and escape to the wilds of Africa? Well, this writer did! At the age of 48, she sold her successful South African company to self-build a house on a 4,500-hectare private game reserve in Botswana. Just four hours of electricity a day, no phone, no gun, no fences to keep predators or elephants at bay, and no vet, doctor, dentist, or supermarket within 120 miles! Told with humour (and a taste of just how life-threatening the bush can be,) this collection of personal experiences gives you a real taste of belonging as an integral part of wild Africa. Be immersed in tales of: Wildfires, droughts, and being marooned by rain-swollen rivers! Being charged by angry elephants and being caught between herds of elephants while on foot! Being adopted by a one-tonne land antelope and a two-week old baby elephant! ...and how often Caesar saved the day!
