Media Reviews
A wonderful book - the most thought provoking, interesting, inspiring book of its kind and a pure pleasure to read. The author has a rare ability to teach immense concepts simply by chatting amiably and humorously about the natural surroundings and some extraordinary encounters with animals and elements and the uniquely wise Bushman he meets in the Kalahari. You'll never quite know if this is a factual travelog or a fable, but you'll recommend it to everyone you know. Editor, Kindred Spirit
