Elephants you Fall in Love with April 11, 2002 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the most detailed book I have found on Elephants. It not only informs you all about the elephants history, it tells you all about the Authors many many years living with them and getting to know each one personally. You are glued to the pages and will not want to put it down. It is so captivating that you actually feel as if you are there with the Douglas-Hamilton family. You become involved with each elephant's life. How they are each an individual just like us. How each has their own personality. This is riviting !!! There are parts that you will laugh with, and cry with, as well. If this does not touch your heart, does not open your eyes to the beauty of one of God's most magnificent creatures put on this earth, and enlighten you to the desperate need to help protect these wonderful animals, then this is not the book for you. I highly recommend this for all ages. A MUST read for anyone who loves elephants!!

This book is one of the greatest pieces on elephants ever read, the pace is swift and makes you not want to put the book down. I have always have been interested in elephants and read everything I could on them, and one day last summer I saw "Among the Elephants" at a small library in a suburb of my town, and before I returned it I had read it twice. The book was so good that I wanted to read it many more times, so instead of constantly checking it out I decided to buy it, so others could read it. This book was wonderful and should be read by anyone who wishes to work with elephants, or by those that just want a good book to read.
