Iain's memoir comes out on September 26th!

In OUTSIDER...A Life with the Elephants and Mountains of Africa, Iain writes “For those of us who have made our homes in Africa we live on the edge of safety in an unpredictable world. Like 'war junkie' journalists we feed off Africa's uncertainties. Those who couldn't cope packed up and left a long time ago.”

In OUTSIDER you will find out exactly what he means...

OUTSIDER is poignant, at times tragic, but always heartwarming and fun. And who knows...you might even find yourself somewhere in its pages!

Those of you who have walked in Tsavo with Iain during the past four decades will have heard the Tsavo story live. Pegasus will publish his memoir in London on September 26, and it will be available on Amazon, and leading bookstores in Europe and America. The book is crammed full of Iain's stories, from his early days in Scotland, through his 1958 arrival in Kenya as a boy, and his initiation into the world of rock climbing and mountaineering. You will read about the birth of Tropical Ice, and the introduction of adventure travel into East Africa, and along the way you will learn about the history of Kenya during the past 65 years, and the world of African conservation, and its uncertain future.
