Around a fire on the banks of the Limpopo, the young hunters of Reid’s earlier African books gather again, this time in search of giraffes. Pit-traps, a lost companion, furious baboons and the spoor of game across the veld fill an expedition rich in natural history; its view of Africa is very much that of the 1860s.
