Princess Michael of Kent's memoir of raising a cheetah cub in Africa is a little like reading Out Of Africa by Karen Blixen. You can sense the magic of Africa as you read. Princess Michael tells of how she raised the cub with the full intention of returning it to the wild when it was ready. The cub, Tess, became a full-fledged member of the family and looked on the princess as its mother. Princess Michael also tells us the history of the cheetah, which is fascinating to read. She also tells of her encounters with Tess after her release into the wild. Recommended for anyone who loves wildlife, conservation, and Africa. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
This charming autobiographical tale from Princess Michael of Kent tells of a girl growing up and the incredible bond that can exist between people and animals. In the early 1960s, Marie Christine von Reibnitz (later HRH Princess Michael of Kent) lived with her father on his farm in Mozambique. It was one of the happiest times of her life and she recounts that it was an orphaned cheetah cub called Tess who played a huge part in making it so. The relationship between the young Princess Michael and Tess, whom she hand-reared and later successfully released into the wild having trained her to hunt and survive on her own, will touch every reader's heart. The events of this period have remained with Princess Michael for the rest of her life and in A Cheetah's Tale she recalls not just the tale of Tess, but also the realities of life in Africa.
