Description
With unforgettable characters and exotic wildlife, The Elephant Whisperer is an enthralling book that will appeal to animal lovers and adventurous souls everywhere.
When South African conservationist Lawrence Anthony was asked to accept a herd of 'rogue' elephants on his Thula Thula game reserve in Zululand, his common sense told him to refuse. But he was the herd's last chance of survival – dangerous and unpredictable, they would be killed if Anthony wouldn't take them in.
As Anthony risked his life to create a bond with the troubled elephants and persuade them to stay on his reserve, he came to realize what a special family they were, from the wise matriarch Nana, who guided the herd, to her warrior sister Frankie, always ready to see off any threat, and their children who fought so hard to survive.

Magnificent
I've just read this book whilst on a safari holiday in South Africa. To read about Lawrence Anthony's dedication to saving these magnificent animals, then seeing them in the wild, makes it a more poignant read. I was telling one of our fellow travellers about the book when I was informed of the author's recent death. To anyone who is interested in wild life this book is an essential read.

Amazing story of one of the worlds greatest animals. You will laugh, cry, feel the fear and if this does not make you want to visit Africa and the elephants the nothing will. One of the beat books I have read.
