Download or read book Zambia Safari Guide written by Chris McIntyre & Susie McIntyre and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2023-08-11 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 25 years Bradt’s Zambia Safari Guide has been widely acknowledged as the best guidebook to this African country, and it is now the only dedicated guide to Zambia’s world-renowned safari destinations. Combining in-depth reviews of lodges, camps and other accommodation (from a stately home to a contemporary woven treehouse), detailed descriptions of safari locations and operators, extensive practical details, local insights, a brand new 48-page colour wildlife guide and curated coverage of the main access points of Lusaka and Livingstone, this is the ‘must-have’ guidebook to travel planning and exploring the country’s wildlife-rich safari regions. Lying in the heart of the continent, Zambia is deepest, darkest Africa at its most appealing. Many visitors are drawn initially to the majestic Victoria Falls. Others come for the glory of Zambia’s stellar national parks: the South Luangwa, the Lower Zambezi and Kafue. For seasoned safari goers, Zambia is the home of the walking safari; for adventurous travellers, it is about canoeing past hippos on the Lower Zambezi – or diving into a whole new world of freshwater fish in Lake Tanganyika. Experienced travel writers Chris and Susie McIntyre – both Africa experts, with Susie having grown up in Zambia – use their decades of safari experience and in-depth knowledge of the Zambian safari scene to provide accurate, honest and upbeat descriptions, anecdotes and advice. To help readers make informed choices, the authors explain where to find top-quality guiding and detail Zambia’s top spots for wildlife and wilderness (including GPS co-ordinates for those who prefer self-drive holidays). They advise on the best walking safaris plus the ‘silent safaris’ available in electric vehicles and boats, and suggest how best to combine different safari experiences into a fulfilling itinerary in a country where nearly one-third of the land area is reserved for wildlife. Whether you are a wildlife enthusiast or Africa addict, an escapist seeking wilderness or a family craving adventure; and whether you prefer a local operator to make your arrangements or independent travel, Bradt’s Zambia Safari Guide is the perfect travel companion.
Download or read book The Eye of the Elephant written by Delia Owens and published by HMH. This book was released on 1993-10-29 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “exciting” true account of battling the elephant poachers of Zambia by the author of Where the Crawdads Sing and her fellow biologist (The Boston Globe). Intelligent, majestic, and loyal, with lifespans matching our own, elephants are among the greatest of the wonders gracing the African wilds. Yet, in the 1970s and 1980s, about a thousand of these captivating creatures were slaughtered in Zambia each year, killed for their valuable ivory tusks. When biologists Mark and Delia Owens, residing in Africa to study lions, found themselves in the middle of a poaching fray, they took the only side they morally could: that of the elephants. From the authors of Secrets of the Savanna, The Eye of the Elephant is “part adventure story, part wildlife tale,” recounting the Owens’s struggle to save these innocent animals from decimation, a journey not only to supply the natives with ways of supporting their villages, but also to cultivate support around the globe for the protection of elephants (The Boston Globe). Filled with daring exploits among disgruntled hunters, arduous labor on the African plains, and vivid depictions of various wildlife, this remarkable tale is at once an adventure story, a travelogue, a preservationist call to action, and a fascinating examination of both human and animal nature.

Download or read book Into Africa written by Mike Connell and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover modern Africa! Army LTC (ret.) Mike Connell's Into Africa brings its diverse characteristics to life. Over 3 years, he visited and studied 18 countries across sub-Saharan Africa, graduated from an Ivorian military staff course, and managed a $3 million U.S. security assistance program for Niger. Afterwards, he served as a Pentagon analyst briefing policy makers on Africa such as Colin Powell, Susan Rice, and James Clapper. Connell's numerous adventures include: Accompanying Chadian fighters who proudly showed him destroyed Libyan vehicles from their recent victory on a desert battlefield, Experiencing a chaotic mutiny of junior soldiers in Niger, Cooperating with friendly Ivorian villagers who toiled hours in a tropical forest to hew a path with axes and saws through a huge fallen tree that blocked his vehicle, and Meeting drunken Liberian guards with assault rifles who unsuccessfully tried to extort bribes. Prior to his assignment in Africa, Connell published a thesis on Zaire and earned a Master of Arts Degree in African History at George Washington University. This fascinating memoir sheds light on a widely ignored corner of the world, illustrating the impact of geography, traditional cultures, divergent colonial experiences, and post-independence policy choices on the nations of Africa. Connell's first-hand account describes how the end of the Cold War initiated significant changes across the continent that reverberate up to the present. The book offers a background, postscript, and author's note for each country chapter. The first presents a concise historical snapshot of a nation prior to his visit; the postscript explains subsequent developments up to 2020; and the author's note offers comments on the relevance of his observations today. Three appendices include 70+ photos. Connell is a 1980 West Point graduate and former history teacher. If you want to understand Africa, read this book!
