Inhaltsangabe

Deep in the vastness of a lost corner of the Congo a reformed big game hunter tackles the management of Garamba National Park. He must wend his way through modern African bureaucracies, civil strife, and corruption in order to combat elephant poachers and remnants of the Lord?s Resistance Army, all the while in search of the possibility that northern white rhino may still exist. The saga unfolds as the hunter and his team of rangers strive to protect and resurrect the park from the ravages of neglect and war. Mysteries of tribal tradition and the very existence of vanishing species unfold along with heartwarming relationships of folks caught up in efforts to save wild creatures. Accurately set amidst the woes of contemporary Congo, the story educates and enlightens about the challenges of conservation in the troubled heart of Africa.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Now mostly retired, I spent much of the last 45 years in Africa or focused on Africa for the U.S. Department of State. I served as ambassador in the Central African Republic and in Rwanda in the years after the genocide. All told I have worked in fifteen African countries. I started as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Kenya. Africa is the inspiration for my fiction and the locale of my memoir, In the Aftermath of Genocide - the U.S. Role in Rwanda.
