Brian and his wife Jo worked for 25 years in African Aid Programmes with their three children. They had been family farmers in England and wanted to transfer their wisdom to grass roots development schemes in Tanganyika immediately after Independence. They arrived to find that everyone else was fleeing the fold. Their story is a mixture of travel, bush adventures and humanism. Their ambitions are a gamble in a rapidly changing world. Brian and Jo face monumental difficulties and dangers with a strong family bonding of love and a keen spirit of adventure. The author's determined struggle with the Establishment gives the story its plot. Wild Africa and a Job To Do is a unique tale of journeys to and inside 'old' Africa, safaris under canvas to some of the remotest places in all Africa with no facilities or maps. There are many gripping and sometimes amusing stories of encounters with elephants, lions, wild dogs, buffalo, snakes, tsetse flies, as well as with extraordinary people. The dynamism of wild Africa is delightfully illustrated.
