Shadows Along the Zambezi
by
"For its unique take on life in a forgotten valley, a place where elephant once roamed freely in their family groups.. a paradise typical of how the rest of Africa is now being systematically plundered by poachers, driven by the greed of Eastern counties for the highly prized elephant ivory and the devastating consequence to mankind."

Mugabe and the White African
by
"A book the whole world should read. A book about incredible courage and determination in the face of a madman, a dictator who is still allowed to rant on, kill maim and do what he likes while the powers that be in the rest of the world do nothing. It will rip your heart out. Also very well written."
