This is a most impressive book on the African Elephant, with page after page of fabulous photos of these mighty beasts. It would make a great coffee table book just for the pictures but it is much more than that.

The main focus is on preservation of the species in the face of shrinking habitats and the poaching for ivory that continues today. The efforts of 16 African wildlife preserves and parks are fully described here.

Each region is profiled with information on its elephants and several photos of the elephants specific to that area. The mature huge tuskers of Kruger National Park are truly awesome.

There is also plenty of information on elephant history, physiology and social interaction. This is a beautiful and significant book on the life and challenges facing the African Elephant.

This book moved me beyond what feelings I have ever known. I learned a great deal of facts from this book and hope to share them with others. I urge other readers to cherish this book...as I do.

Full of pictures, this coffee table book is exactly what I wanted. It shows elephants in all areas of life, in poses I had never seen before. It truly is beautiful!

THIS A FANTASTIC BOOK. WE WILL SPEND A LOT OF THIS WINTER READING AND REREADING THIS MASTERPICE OF INFO RE: ELEPHANTS. THE PHOTOGRAPHY IS SO REAL LOOKING. GREAT BOOK, AND GREAT SERVIVCE IN BUYING FROM YOU.

This is a wonderful book for anyone interested in African elephants. It combines outstanding photographs with interesting and entertaining text.
