520 $aThe author is one of Africa's most bitten. In the course of his adventures he has been mauled by a leopard, a silverback gorilla and a hippo, and almost lost his life to a deadly puff-adder, which claimed one of his fingers. In this book, he tells the story of his life's work, from his arrival in Kenya as a young boy to the making of his films.
