Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. 8vo. xiii, 302pp, index, bw ills. Or red papered boards with tan cloth spine in jacket. Very slight edge wear to jacket, spine somewhat faded. Account of the author's experiences rescuing orphaned baby chimpanzees, raising them and finally teaching them to live free in the African wilds.
This book is about chimps in Africa. The author, Stella Brewer, grew up in a house full of pets and rescued orphaned wildlife. Eventually she and her father established a piece of wilderness in the Gambia as a national park, where they built a center for orphaned chimpanzees. Brewer was shocked one day to see a chimp capture and eat a monkey, having assumed them to be vegetarian. She visited the Gombe to learn more from Jane Goodall and observe wild chimpanzees, then returned to Gambia with dreams of rehabilitating chimps to the wild. Eventually she found an area around Mt. Asserik in Senegal where she taught and released eight different chimps. The most wonderous aspects of this book are examples of the chimpanzees' high intelligence, keen observation and ability to learn, portraits of their strong personalities and the inspirational work of one woman dedicated to improving their lives.
