"This book records the extraordinary relationship with a Kenya lioness established by the author over a period of four years, and still existing. There have been many, too many, 'pet lions' but none has ever before been returned to a wild life and still maintained its relationship with human beings. . Perhaps never before over a similar period has the life history of an animal been documented in greater detail by hundreds of photographs, over one hundred of which form the illustrations of this book.".
