There aren't really enough ratings (2 at Amazon; only 1 at GoodReads) to get an idea about how good this book is. However, the author has great credentials. And, from a cursory look-over on my part, this seems to be a very interesting read, be well-written, and be very nicely illustrated (well, I like the illustrations anyway). Whether or not you ever go on a safari, and use this book for its intended purpose as a travel guide, I think that you will like it, if you like this kind of thing. It's a "must-post."
