With My Soul Amongst Lions

Résumé du livre

When George Adamson was murdered by the hand of poachers, Gareth Patterson vowed to continue his work. He successfully cared for and nurtured Adamson's lion cubs, who had been orphaned once again in the wild. Batian, Furaha, and Rafiki became his life's work. Gareth prepared them for all the dangers they might face, but unfortunately could never completely guard them from their most lethal enemy - man. Too soon, Batian, the pride male, became the victim of a cruel murder, which left the last of the Adamson lions fighting for their survival. With My Soul Amongst Lions follows Patterson's continued battle to protect the lions and all other life in the bush: from the beautiful serene moments resting with his pride to his dangerous patrols of the bushlands, often alone and without a weapon, in the punishing heat of a cruel, dry summer. Now even more determined and passionate about his cause, Patterson struggles on in the name of the lions who are lost, and for the lions of the future. Never before has such dramatic and moving natural history been told so evocatively.
