Whatever You Do, Don't Run

This hilarious and original collection of essays by Peter Allison, an African safari guide, gives readers a lively and witty guide's-eye view of living in the bush, managing groups of tourists, and confronting wild animals. Allison's love and respect for the animals is equaled only by his humor, and he aims to limit human exposure to the animals by planning minimally invasive trips. Despite his best efforts, however, he shares some outrageous-but-true tales, including tourists who are more dangerous than lions, friendships with vicious animals, and a night in the wild after blowing a tire on a tour bus. This book is perfect for anyone looking for a unique, funny, and informative adventure.
