Scorched Sands of the Kalahari (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499559484)

Another action packed adventure following on from the author's original book "Where Leopards Cough". Hair-raising and dangerous situations abound, including flying single engine aeroplanes into dangerous and remote areas of Botswana. The author never fails to see the humour in even the most disastrous situations and his fanatic love of animals is transposed to you in these pages. This together with the rigours of living and bringing up their two young children in the early 70's under difficult and remote conditions in Botswana. The book is jam packed with informative and interesting facts of Geology, diamond drilling, the art of divining for water, motor-cross and off road racing, windsurfing techniques and the breathtaking beauty of Southern Africa with its dangerous yet majestic animal life. The author's experiences go beyond the borders of South Africa when he spends twenty-eight years in Botswana during which time he was also involved in business ventures in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Russia and Zambia.
