When Eagles Roar:
The Amazing Journey of an African Wildlife Adventurer
What’s it like to be a game ranger in Africa?
A native of South Africa, James Currie faced everything
from the Big Five to the vestiges of apartheid to the AIDS
epidemic. As a former safari ranger at one of Africa’s
premier reserves, he is an authority on African wildlife
and illustrates many hair-raising encounters through
exciting and humorous stories from his new book. James
provides wonderful insights into conservation and the
wildlife tourism environment in Africa. Books will be
available for purchase, and a book signing will follow.
