Subtitle: One Woman's Battle for Africa's Most Sacred Animal Author: Linda Tucker Publisher: North Atlantic Books () ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good. Light wear to cover edges. Binding: Softcover Pages: 393 Dimensions: 22.8 x 15.3 x 2.5 cm +++ by Linda Tucker +++ In this captivating memoir, white lion conservationist Linda Tucker describes her perilous struggle to protect the sacred white lion from the merciless and mafia-like trophy-hunting industry. In , Tucker (then a successful advertising executive) and a group of fellow travelers found themselves surrounded by a pride of angry lions. There was no way out, night had fallen, and the battery in their only flashlight was beginning to flicker. Miraculously, a local medicine woman, with two youngsters in tow, passed, trancelike and fearless, through the lions and escorted them all to safety. For Tucker, that life-threatening experience became a life-changing one. She abandoned her career, left Europe, and returned to Timbavati to track down the medicine woman who had saved her: Maria Khosa. Upon seeing Tucker again, Khosa only smiled and said, "What took you so long?"?. Under Khosa's shamanic tutelage, Tucker learned of her sacred destiny: to be the 'keeper of the white lions'. Compellingly written in the intimate style of a journal, Tucker describes with unflinching honesty her fears, doubts, hopes, and dreams, all the while unfolding for us an unforgettable tale of adventure, romance, spirituality, and most of all, justice.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers.
