Love Letters To Africa

Are clouds alive? Where is Africa’s most dangerous river? Are there really elephants in the Knysna Forest? Why do female hyenas sometimes grow a penis? Why did Zulu warriors never ride into battle mounted on zebras?

These are some of the quirky questions which award-winning journalist and naturalist Don Pinnock seeks to answer as he wanders around Africa.

Love Letters To Africa is a blend of geography, history, natural science and travel writing, of personal meditation and general philosophy. For exploring Africa at ground level, you couldn’t find a better guide.
