Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - MpatamangaOne man. One wilderness. Twenty years of conservation against impossible odds.When Ian Bartlett acquired a remote tract of customary land overlooking Malawi's spectacular Mpatamanga Gorge, it was a neglected wilderness under constant threat from illegal logging, charcoal burning and poaching. With no government funding, no NGO support and little more than determination, he set out to prove that one person could make a difference.Over the next two decades, he built Mpatamanga Wildlife Ranch into one of Malawi's most remarkable private conservation success stories. Working alongside his trusted scout Thomas and with the support of local communities and traditional leaders, Ian protected more than half a million indigenous trees, preserved vital wildlife habitat and transformed a forgotten landscape into a sanctuary for nature.But conservation was never easy.From confronting poachers and illegal loggers to tracking down thieves, surviving devastating wildfires, uncovering ancient cave relics, and earning the respect of local chiefs, every victory came at a price. The ranch became more than a conservation project-it became a way of life.Then came the greatest challenge of all.After twenty years of protecting the land, Ian learned that much of the ranch lay within the footprint of the proposed Mpatamanga Hydropower Project. The place he had fought so hard to preserve now faced an uncertain future beneath the waters of a new reservoir, forcing him into a battle involving government agencies, international consultants, environmental assessments and difficult questions about the true balance between conservation and development.Mpatamanga is a powerful true story of vision, resilience and unwavering commitment. It is an inspiring account of what one determined individual achieved without financial backing or institutional support, and a poignant reminder that the greatest conservation victories are often won quietly, far from the world's attention.Rich with adventure, history, wildlife and unforgettable characters, Mpatamanga is more than a memoir-it is a tribute to one of Africa's hidden landscapes and the enduring belief that one person really can leave the world better than they found it.For readers who enjoy conservation, African history, true adventure and inspiring real-life stories, Mpatamanga is a journey you will never forget.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Memoirs of a Real Crocodile HunterTrue Tales of Man-Eaters, Dangerous Game, and Survival on Africa's Wild Rivers'Ian Bartlett is the real deal.'- Julius Fortuna, Co-Founder, Double Rifle SocietyFor a decade, Ian Bartlett worked where Africa's rivers kill people.As a licensed professional crocodile hunter, Bartlett was called in when man-eating crocodiles terrorised villages along the rivers of southern Africa. These were not sport hunts. They were dangerous-game control operations, carried out at night, at close range, where a single mistake could mean death.This is a true hunting memoir, told by the man who did the work.Memoirs of a Real Crocodile Hunter is a first-hand account of crocodile hunting in Africa, drawing readers deep into the wild river systems of Malawi and the wider southern African region. Bartlett describes real encounters with problem crocodiles, human fatalities, and the responsibility carried by those tasked with stopping predators that have learned to hunt people.Unlike fictional thrillers or embellished safari stories, this book delivers authentic dangerous-game hunting, written with the calm authority of lived experience. Each chapter blends action with insight-showing how instinct, bushcraft, and courage are forged through years spent in the field.What sets this African adventure book apart is its honesty. As noted by the Double Rifle Society, Bartlett's storytelling has the rare authenticity of a true professional-placing him alongside the great African hunting writers such as Robert Ruark and Peter Hathaway Capstick.Beyond the hunts themselves, the book explores African river life, local knowledge, myth, and the communities who live daily with some of the world's most feared predators. With his trusted companions Tilly and Mfumu, Bartlett brings Africa's rivers, people, and dangers vividly to life.'Real encounters-sharp, vivid, and unembellished.'- Julius Fortuna, Double Rifle SocietyThis book is ideal for readers interested in: - True African adventure stories- Dangerous game hunting memoirs- Crocodile attacks and man-eaters- Safari history and professional hunters- African wildlife and river ecosystems- Real survival stories from AfricaIf you enjoy true stories of danger, authentic hunting memoirs, and African adventure non-fiction, Memoirs of a Real Crocodile Hunter belongs on your shelf.…
