Born Free by Joy Adamson
An unforgettable adventure of love, survival and the call of the wild For more than fifty years, the enchanting tale of Joy Adamson and Elsa, the lioness, has mesmerized readers across the globe. Rescued as an orphaned cub and raised at Joy's home in Kenya, Elsa found a home and a mother in Joy. But Elsa had been born free, and Joy knew that she had to be returned to her rightful home in the wild once she was old enough to fend for herself. Moving and inspiring, Born Free and its sequels, Living Free and Forever Free, have charmed readers for generations. 'Moving and incredible, [with] some of the most extraordinary photographs ever seen' The New York Times
Joy Adamson was a pioneer in the field of conservation. With her husband George, senior game warden in a huge area of the northern frontier province of Kenya, she established one of the world’s first wild animal appeals. Now the Elsa Conservation Trust, it operates an education, training and wildlife retreat centre at the Adamsons’ former home of Elsamere, on the shores of Lake Naivasha.
