No One Loved Gorillas More by Camilla De La Bedoyere
In the early hours of December 27th 1985, Dian Fossey was murdered in her cabin by an unknown attacker - 'No One Loved Gorillas More' are the words inscribed on her gravestone. For 18 years Dian had lived among the mountain gorillas of central Africa, dedicating all her energy to protecting them. Here for the first time, Dian's story is told through the letters she wrote to her friends and family, set in context by a compelling narrative. Sometimes scathing, sometimes self-pitying, frequently amusing and always fascinating, these previously unpublished letters provide a unique and intimate portrait and bring to life the rewards and setbacks of Dian 's years with the great apes.
Camilla de la Bedoyere works as a journalist and writer and has written books on natural history. Bob Campbell began his career in photography in 1963. He took on an assignment with the National Geographic Society and was sent to Dian Fossey's camp in the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda.
