"A Love Affair with A Continent" by Kingsley Holgate

A Love Affair with a Continent’ spans 30 years of the Kingsley Holgate team’s travels to every country in Africa, including all of her island states.

Packed with never-before-told stories taken from Kingsley’s pile of dog-eared expedition journals and laced with Kingsley’s legendary humour, each chapter is a stand-alone story of a life of adventure – the excitement, escapades, humanitarian work and characters met along the way, with beautifully detailed descriptions of Africa’s wildlife, wild places and fascinating people – and the downright scary moments when things go wrong, from a croc chomping the inflatable boat, to child soldiers high on cocaine.
