Description

In 1969, Joy Adamson first shared her remarkable story of life with Elsa, a lioness she had rescued as an orphaned cub and raised at her home in Kenya. As Elsa grew, Joy made the difficult decision to return her to the wild when she was old enough to fend for herself. This 50th anniversary edition of Born Free offers a chance to rediscover the original story, told in Joy's own words.

Millions have been inspired by the remarkable bond between Joy and Elsa, and the story has been immortalized in film. But here, readers can experience the original account, a testament to the enduring power of human-animal relationships.

With its uplifting charm and remarkable story, Born Free is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the natural world and the people who care for it.
