Scorched Sands of the Kalahari 

Another action packed adventure following on from the author’s original book “Where Leopards Cough”. It is a true story about a young family who left their beloved home country Rhodesia and started a new life in South Africa. On many occasions life was so tough they wanted to give up but their will to succeed, won the day. 

Hair-raising and dangerous situations abound that will keep you on the edge of  your seat. The author never fails to see the humour in even the most disastrous situations and his fanatic love of animals is transposed to you in these pages.

This book is jam packed with informative and interesting facts of Geology, diamond drilling and the art of divining for water. In addition, many interesting experiences in motor-cross/off road racing, windsurfing techniques, the best way to catch a fish, flying aeroplanes into dangerous and remote areas of Botswana coupled with the breathtaking beauty of Southern Africa with its dangerous yet majestic animal life. 

The author’s experiences go beyond the borders of South Africa when he spends twenty-eight years in Botswana during which time he was also involved in business ventures in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Russia and Zambia.
