THE LESSER SPOTTED AUTHOR

Black Lion: Alive in the wilderness
Co-Authored with Sicelo Mbatha 
Jonathan Ball Publishers 
ISBN: 9781776191284

This lyrical and heartfelt book helps to fill a yawning gap in African natural history prose. The overwhelming majority of such books have been written by white authors...  Sicelo Mbatha is a Zulu man from a poor rural background, and he brings an important perspective to African conservation that is missing from most accounts of this nature. This is an important book that brings a sorely needed framework to the discourse on African conservation. It is also a delightful read.' - Ed Stoddard, Daily Maverick

I think I was born again after reading this book... I will recommend it to everybody trying to find meaning in life - Life coach Gugu Mhlongo during an interview on Pustalok - Light of the book.
