Description
Elaine Bosman's memoir of a Rhodesian adventure is a story of wit, determination, and the power of family. In the 1970s, the Bosman family embarked on an ambitious project to build a photographic safari lodge in the wilderness of Rhodesia, 90 miles from the nearest paved road.
With only their skills and a dream, they overcame numerous challenges, from curious wildlife to harsh weather conditions, to create a luxury safari lodge from scratch. Along the way, they encountered a cast of characters, had hilarious adventures, and forged lasting friendships.
This memoir is a testament to the Bosman family's resilience and resourcefulness, and offers a unique glimpse into a bygone era of African adventure and exploration.
