Don't Run, Whatever You Do: My Adventures as a Safari Guide by Peter Allison

Don't Run, Whatever You Do: My Adventures as a Safari Guide by Peter Allison is an entertaining and insightful memoir that takes readers deep into the African wilderness through the eyes of an experienced safari guide. Drawing on years spent leading game drives and walking safaris across some of Africa's most iconic wildlife destinations, Allison recounts a collection of unforgettable encounters with elephants, lions, buffalo, leopards and a host of other remarkable animals.

Written with warmth, wit and honesty, Don't Run, Whatever You Do balances laugh-out-loud moments with fascinating observations about animal behaviour, conservation and the unpredictable realities of life in the bush. Rather than presenting a technical guide to wildlife, Allison shares the human side of safari guiding, revealing the challenges, dangers and humour that accompany a profession where every day brings a new adventure. His engaging storytelling has made this an international bestseller and a favourite among travellers, wildlife enthusiasts and anyone dreaming of an African safari.

This 2016 Nicholas Brealey Publishing paperback edition remains a highly readable copy that would make an excellent addition to any collection of African travel writing, wildlife memoirs or conservation literature. Whether you have visited Africa's game reserves or simply enjoy immersive adventure narratives, Don't Run, Whatever You Do offers an authentic and thoroughly enjoyable glimpse into one of the world's most extraordinary professions. It also makes an ideal gift for nature lovers, birders, safari-goers and those with an interest in African wildlife and conservation.
