Review by customer and safari specialist, Tania Perkins:
"A modern day 'Out of Africa', Kuki Gallman’s story follows her often difficult but really inspirational journey to Africa. The warm writing involves the reader in the tricky situations and sad and exciting experiences that she finds her self in."

More on Kuki Gallman's book:
'Often, at the hour of day when the savannah grass is streaked with silver, and pale gold rims the silhouettes of the hills, I drive with my dogs up to the Mukutan, to watch the sun setting behind the lake, and the evening shadows settle over the valleys and plains of the Laikipia plateau.’

Kuki Gallmann’s haunting memoir of bringing up a family in Kenya in the 1970s first with her husband Paulo, and then alone, is part elegaic celebration, part tragedy, and part love letter to the magical spirit of Africa.
