Mahlangeni - Stories Of A Game Ranger's Family (Paperback, Re-issue)


Mahlangeni, the Tsonga word for "meeting place", is one of the most remote ranger stations in the Kruger National Park. Far from everywhere, this isolated corner of the wilderness was home for eleven years to Kobie Kruger, wife of the ranger in charge of the station, and their their three daughters.

Running a household and raising a family in a place where leopards, elephants, snakes and the like are your only neighbours, where you have no telephone, and where a trip to town means first crossing a river full of hippos and crocodiles, is hardly a straightforward business. But Kobie Kruger tackled each problem with undaunted pragmatism and an energy that gives new meaning to word resourceful.

I am extremely impressed by Kobie's writing. Awesome writer, you live her story, page by page with humor and deep feelings of her experiences. She is among the top writers in my book, so easy to read yet so descriptive. I have no words to explain what a pleasure and how relaxing it is to read her books. Can't wait to buy her third book . Thank you Kobie, you are an inspiration. Please continue writing . Alain and Stephanie

AWESOME! If you know the Kruger National Park, you will travel there by reading this book!
