This work details the author's experiences and adventures climbing Kilimanjaro, trying to stage and film a "fight" between a Masai warrior and a lion and in filming black rhinos for a TV commercial. This work, as opposed to the author's other books about his African adventures, really felt "dated". It was written in a time when wildlife photography was still new and considered a "big deal" and when getting a blurry, out-of-focus photo of crocodile was considered a triumph. Needless to say reading through descriptions of his attempts to photograph animals was about as exciting as watching paint dry. Three stars because of some interesting ethnographic material and some amusing anecdotes. Recommend the author's other works over this one.
