This book is the remarkable story of Isabel de Quintanilla who left a privileged life in Valencia in the 1960s and followed the man of her dreams, Tony Sanchez Arino, to Africa. Enduring harsh conditions and often extreme discomfort, she became an elephant hunter. In spite of a dangerous bout of malaria and Dengeu fever, she remained at her husbands side and together they formed a hugely successful safari business, hunting in some of the most remote parts of Africa.
