Reviews for Battle for the President's Elephants
Excellent read, excellent spirit
There is something moving about Sharon Pincott's unassuming tenacity and courage that stays with you as you read. She seems to know the rhythm and outrageousness of rural Africa as well as anybody and writes about it with a passion that is contagious. Her spirit never diminishes entirely despite the overwhelming odds. Her writing about life in Hwange, life in Zimbabwe, is uplifting even when you read about unfathomable human actions. This lady has lovely *****. If I was an elephant I would want her on my side too. by Brandt Fischer
