Long description
With a flavour of fiction, but factual throughout, Elephant, Me tells tales from the lifetime of a young African bull elephant named Tembo Ndhlovu. Witnessed by the author, confirmed by experts and supported by scientific fact, this real-life series of true stories documents the behaviour and habits of these remarkable animals in a volume that compares to the most respected textbooks on the subject. Ironically, Elephant, Me was never intended to be a literary work at all. It was conceived as a coffee-table book - a portfolio of photographs with minimum text showing these majestic beasts in their rapidly changing habitat on a continent that, through man's encroachment, threatens their very existence. Subsequently, it simply changed direction and grew from there.
