DOUBLEDAY

Some Pygmy women have hair on their chests -- giraffe can't throw up -- one ostrich egg makes enough scrambled eggs for eleven people -- zebra are prone to heart attacks -- both the Pygmies and the giant Watusi are inveterate grass smokers. These are some of the highly-entertaining facts in this book that captures the unique flavor of East Africa. It is written with style and humor by a couple who both lecture in the US and run camera safaris in Africa for Percival Tours. This remains a fascinating, unusual and beguiling book.
