Essential book for safari,
I just got back from a two week safari in Tanzania and both of my guides raved about my book. They each had books with pictures of birds and animals, not actual photos. The descriptions in this book are accurate, the photos beautiful, and the price is well worth it. I ended up giving my copy to my guide when he took me to the Serengeti airstrip for my trip home. I’m ordering another copy now!

|This is THE safari book to take with you.,
It is relatively compact. It has a sturdy vinyl cover. It has beautiful, vibrant pictures of the animals. It has easy to find, to the point descriptions of each species’ habitat, mating/birthing, typical prey or food, etc, which is what you want when you’re on a bumpy game drive. I bought this, The African Safari Companion and the Safari Journal and this was the only book I actually used on safari in E. Africa. If you’re wondering which book to bring – this is it.

|Good, but not great!,
As other reviewers have noted, this is a wonderful Field Guide with excellent photographs and descriptions. Indeed, following my first trip to Tanzania, I purchased a copy. Prior to my second trip, however, someone suggested that I take a look, instead, at Withers’ Wildlife of East Africa and I was immediately sold on it.
There are various reasons why I think Withers is the better choice for those going on their first safari in East Africa. Most importantly, it’s a lot smaller/lighter and the descriptions are opposite the bird and animal photographs, rather than at the back of the Audubon Guide. In addition, the coverage of wildlife is excellent: we saw a lot of different animals and birds and, with very few exceptions, they were all covered in Wild Life of East Africa.
A friend is off on safari this summer and asked me about what to take. They had heard of The Audubon Field Guide, but not Withers et al. It’s that conversation that prompted me to write this.
