CHRONICLES OF A GAME RANGER

by Nick Tredger

This book is a treatise of the last days of colonial game ranging in Zimbabwe, by a group of young dedicated men and covers the glories and the heartache of carrying out tough wildlife management decisions - and just the true sense of being 'in the bush' for the shear love of the job.

It, furthermore, identifies the changes immediately post Zimbabwe independence and the threats and traumatic times that this brought on people who were dedicated to the care of wild animals and wild lands, people who had no political axe to grind, but who were caught up in the changes of what was to become an oppressive regime, which caused the complete eradication of a species in the country, namely the Black Rhino that were wiped out on the alter of political expediency.
