Book Synopsis Whatever You Do, Don't Run by : Peter Allison
Download or read book Whatever You Do, Don't Run written by Peter Allison and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hilarious, highly original collection of essays based on the Botswana truism: “only food runs!” In the tradition of Bill Bryson, a new writer brings us the lively adventures and biting wit of an African safari guide. Peter Allison gives us the guide’s-eye view of living in the bush, confronting the world’s fiercest terrain of wild animals and, most challenging of all, managing herds of gaping tourists. Passionate for the animals of the Kalahari, Allison works as a top safari guide in the wildlife-rich Okavango Delta. As he serves the whims of his wealthy clients, he often has to stop the impulse to run as far away from them as he can, as these tourists are sometimes more dangerous than a pride of lions. No one could make up these outrageous-but-true tales: the young woman who rejected the recommended safari-friendly khaki to wear a more “fashionable” hot pink ensemble; the lost tourist who happened to be drunk, half-naked, and a member of the British royal family; establishing a real friendship with the continent’s most vicious animal; the Japanese tourist who requested a repeat performance of Allison’s being charged by a lion so he could videotape it; and spending a crazy night in the wild after blowing a tire on a tour bus, revealing that Allison has as much good-natured scorn for himself. The author’s humor is exceeded only by his love and respect for the animals, and his goal is to limit any negative exposure to humans by planning trips that are minimally invasive—unfortunately it doesn’t always work out that way! Peter Allison is originally from Sydney, Australia. His safaris have been featured in National Geographic, Conde Nast Traveler, and on television programs such as Jack Hanna’s Animal Adventures. He travels frequently to speaking appearances, and splits most of his time between Botswana, Sydney, and San Francisco.

Download or read book Fair Game written by David Fleminger and published by Dogdog Publishing. This book was released on 2017 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fair Game tells the story of the Kruger's hidden history and heritage, from its establishment as the Sabi Reserve in 1898 to its eventual declaration as a national park, and beyond. It's an engrossing tale filled with stubborn personalities, twists of fate, unlikely heroes, greedy villains and (luckily) a very happy ending. So, prepare yourself for a grand historical safari as we recount the little-known tale of an unwanted wasteland that grew into the one of the greatest game reserves in the world.The Kruger National Park is an internationally renowned wildlife sanctuary and one of South Africa's top tourist attractions. However, this wasn't always the case. For the first 30 years of the park's existence, it was very unpopular and many people downright hated the idea of a reserve dedicated to the preservation of animals ('But what's the point of looking at the things?', one critic decried). In fact, without the dedication and fortitude of a handful of champions, the park would likely have been abandoned, diluted or deproclaimed altogether. Also included: a comprehensive planning guide and custom maps to help you make the most of your visit to the Kruger National Park.
