Joy Adamson was not only a pioneer for the preservation of wildlife, but also a very courageous individual who faced many challenges in her life. She learned to adapt herself to live in different countries, learn different traditions and languages and she developed her unique personality with her beautiful paintings of African people, flowers and animals and also with her dedication to fight the abuse of wild animals taken away from their natural habitat. She wrote inspiring books about Elsa the lioness and other wild animals which she cared for before releasing them back into the wild.In this book we read about the experiences which led this extraordinary woman to write about the animals and the wild life she cared so much for and also for her final legacy to help preserve wild life for the generations to come. Her story is amazing and her legacy is a great gift.
Fifty years ago Joy Adamson first introduced to the world the story of her life alongside Elsa the lioness, whom she had rescued as an orphaned cub, and raised at her home in Kenya. But as Elsa had been born free, Joy made the heartbreaking decision that she must be returned to the wild when she was old enough to fend for herself. Since the first publication of Born Free and its sequels Living Free and Forever Free, generations of readers have been enchanted, inspired and moved by these books' uplifting charm and the remarkable interaction between Joy and Elsa. Millions have also come to know and love Born Free through the immortal film starring Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers. But here is the chance to rediscover the original story in this 50th anniversary edition, in the words of the woman who reared Elsa and walked with the lions.
