The game drive is a South African institution of an activity, and this an excellent companion to one. The authors have chosen to focus on mammals as the often-time star attractions of a game drive – after all, the Big Five are all mammals! As usual, the Van den Bergs deliver stellar work with beautiful photographs and text which is filled with information, without being verbose.
It was very good and given to each of our English grandchildren for our visit to the Kruger and Olifants River game Reserve. They were fortunate to see four of the big five and cheetah chase down an Impala. Add to this a painted dog **** making a memorable experience.
The photographs are stunning and the book, as usual with HPH, is very well produced and has a classy look and feel. This is, however,more of a coffee table book than a field guide. The information on the mammals is limited but adequate for a brief overview and insight.
The Photography is absolutely fantastice, like all the books, however I would have liked a bit more info on the animals. The rightup of the animals was very limited
