A great insight into Bwindi for anyone going to the area July 7, 2001
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am travelling to Bwindi this summer with my pals and I wanted to read more about the place rather than just a few paragraphs in a wildlife field guide. This book did the job admirably. The author lived in Bwindi for nearly 2 years working with the Peace Corps and the locals in habituating the rare mountain gorillas to human contact. The author interlaces the conservation conundrum of people versus wildlife with enthusiasm and first hand experience. The story is told with laughs and tears about the authors experience with both the local people and the gorillas. An excellent read, I am sure I will enjoy my trip there more for having read the book.
