Product Description
The last chapter of Born Free. Gareth Patterson worked with George Adamson before Adamson's death at the hands of poachers, adopted his orphaned cubs and moved them to the safety of the Tuli in Botswana. Here he made camp in an isolated spot and set about returning the lions to the wild, divorcing them from the only family they knew--mankind.

5 out of 5 stars An Incredible Experience   October 19, 2000
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I ran into this book in my library. Since I love to read of books about individuals sharing their lives with wildlife, I eagerly checked Last of the Free out. I was not disappointed! Gareth truly came across as a very caring human being! His views on the "system" and his frustration at trying to accept the way people are is interesting. He seems to be taking over for the lions for George Adamson when he died by poachers/bandits!

What a difficult life he has chosen for himself but a very rewarding one. I love reading about the antics and learning experiences of animals and this time it was with lions! I am so envious of Gareth and so glad that he's doing all that he is. I have found his homepage and plan on keeping abreast of what he's doing. The poor lions and elephants need a voice and they have one! Thank God!
