Description
The story of 150 years of the ulimate adventure, from the first safari in 1836, as Cornwallis Harris walked across Transvaal with his double-barrelled rifle and ox-wagon, discovering the hunter's Garden of Eden, to the last of the great professional hunters, as they struggle today to carry on their tradition in the swamps of Tanzania and the high forests of Ethiopia. Safari examines the ethics of hunting and the apparent dilemma of the hunter-conservationists. Against a backdrop of tribal, colonial and wildlife history, it documents developments in weapons and transport, in game control and conservation, and it reveals the attraction that has never changed, the magical freedom, beauty and excitement of the African bush.
