Second Edition By Publisher. 166 pages with 8 B&W photo pages "A group of men trap wild animals in Africa and sell them to zoos before the arrival of a female wildlife photographer threatens to change their ways.".Goodreads; He was a she! They were in the toughest business in the world--capturing liv…e African wild animals for zoos all over the world. They were doing all right at it, too, until she came along. She was a famous news photographer, and when she'd written asking to cover their latest safari she'd signed herself A.M. D'Allesandro. Naturally they'd assumed she was a man. So when she turned up looking like she was off for a fashionable Roman cocktail party, it looked like trouble. It was, too, but not the kind that any of them had anticipated. >> Overall VG, but one inch paper missing at bottom on spine, cover creasing & scuffing; slight spine slant.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Used. In a world where the mere act of chasing wild animals is deemed a form of entertainment, Michael Milner?s 1962 masterpiece "Hatari!" invites you to experience the dubious joys of safari life through the eyes of those who are just a tad too enthusiastic about capturing beasts for the thrill of it. Publ…ished by Pocket Books, this volume is a delightful throwback to an era when wrangling elephants and lassoing leopards was considered a Saturday afternoon jaunt rather than a fast track to animal rights protests. You?ll find yourself questioning everything, from your own ethical compass to the sanity of those who thought, ?Let?s drive around Africa and capture some of nature?s finest for fun!" But let?s not get bogged down by moral dilemmas, shall we? Instead, prepare yourself for an exploration of a world where the lines between man and beast blur with comedic aplomb. Milner offers a front-row seat to the peculiarities of life in the wild?complete with slapstick moments, absurd mishaps, and a healthy dose of irony. Just when you think the protagonist has met his match in the form of a particularly stubborn rhinoceros, the plot twists in ways that will leave you bemused, scratching your head, and questioning the very essence of ?adventure.? What is it about the great outdoors that elicits such lunacy? The answer, as Milner presents it, seems to involve an alarming amount of miscommunication, misplaced bravado, and the kind of camaraderie formed only in the face of absurdity. In "Hatari!", you?ll encounter a hodgepodge of characters who personify this chaotic spirit, each more absurd than the last. Picture a band of reckless renegades, armed with nets, ropes, and an insatiable desire for chaos. They?re like the Spice Girls of wildlife capture?each uniquely qualified to create a delightful mess, yet utterly unqualified for the task at hand. As you flip through these pages, you may find yourself pondering the following essential questions: Can a man really negotiate with a lion using only a tin can and sheer audacity? What?s the acceptable level of wild animal entanglement before it becomes a serious ethical quandary? Is there a recommended distance to stand from a charging hippopotamus? How many nets does it take to capture a zebra, and is it worth the trouble? Are there any practical applications for ?stumbling into a safari adventure? on your CV? In its pages, you?ll find descriptions that feel like a time capsule, transported straight from the 1960s when leisure activities were decidedly less? sensitive. The writing is infused with that charming sense of naiveté that can only come from a time when the world was still convinced that the pursuit of exotic wildlife made for a smashing good time. You may even find yourself chuckling in disbelief at the absurdity, while simultaneously contemplating the plight of the creatures involved. It?s a bit like watching a slapstick comedy unfold?funny in theory, but deeply concerning when you think about it for more than five seconds. Condition: This particular copy of "Hatari!" has seen better days and bears the scars of its many encounters, much like the hapless characters within. Expect dog-eared pages, a cover that has bravely endured the test of time, and perhaps the faint scent of something you?re not quite sure you want to identify. Yet, in this imperfection lies its charm?perfect for those who appreciate the beauty of a book with stories beyond its own narrative. If you find yourself with an inclination for absurdity, and a penchant for raucous laughter at the expense of well-meaning yet misguided individuals, then this is your book. Grab it, and embrace the chaos that is "Hatari!" as sold by Crappy Old Books. You may just uncover a bizarre slice of history that leaves you both entertained and bewildered, questioning your own life choices along the way.
