The incredible memoir by international bestselling author of Where
The Crawdads Sing, Delia Owens and her then partner Mark Owens',
charting their time researching wildlife in the Kalahari Desert.
Reissued and in full colour, for the first time since its original
publication. In the early 1970s, carrying little more than a change
of clothes and a pair of binoculars, Mark and Delia Owens caught a
plane to Africa, bought a third-hand Land Rover, and drove deep
into the Kalahari Desert. There they lived for seven years, in an
unexplored area with no roads, no people, and no source of water
for thousands of square miles. In this vast wilderness the Owenses
began their zoology research, working alongside lions, brown
hyenas, jackals, giraffes, and the many other creatures they came
to know. Cry of the Kalahari is a gripping account of how two young
Americans survived the dangers of living in one of the last
pristine areas on Earth. Reissued for the first time since its
original publication in 1984, this beautiful new edition contains
never-seen-before, colour photographs of Mark and Delia on their
adventure of a lifetime. 'A remarkable story beautifully told . . .
Among such classics as Goodall's In the Shadow of Man and Fossey's
Gorillas in the Mist' Chicago Tribune 'For anyone interested in
animals or in real life adventure, this book is a must' Jane
Goodall 'Extraordinary . . . How the couple overcome the hazards of
the desert and came to appreciate its living richness makes
fascinating reading . . . Read their remarkable book to be
delighted, moved, and awed' People Magazine
