Description

JAKE'S SARAFI is the thrilling sequel to his previous two books JAKE'S ESCAPE and JAKE'S TREASURE. Jake's on the adventure of a lifetime, under a blazing African sun. Jake's staying at a Samburu village when some of their cattle are stolen by rustlers. A chase ensues and they need to keep all their wits about them as they face the culprits, the elements and the animals of the wide-open African plains. Then, when Jake becomes separated from the rest of the tribe, he finds himself involved in a new, and even more frightening battle... for his own survival...

Author Biography

Robin Hanbury-Tenison OBE, DL was recently described by the Spectator as the doyen of British explorers. Conservationist, broadcaster, film maker, author of over 20 books, lecturer, campaigner, farmer and, with his wife Louella, equestrian traveller par excellence, he is one of the few remaining British explorers who merits the name. He is a Gold Medallist of the Royal Geographical Society, a Founder and President of Survival International, the world's leading organisation supporting tribal peoples. Named as the greatest explorer by the Sunday Times, he has been on over 30 expeditions, including leading the Royal Geographical Society's largest expedition, taking 115 scientists to live for fifteen months in the interior of Borneo. This research and his book for adults, Mulu- the Rainforest, started the international concern for tropical rainforests.
