PUT YOUR NOSE IN A BOOK FACT & FICTION

The Buck that Buries its Poo

BY QUINTON COETZEE

Jonathan Ball, RRP R280

The author of this interesting little guide knows his stuff. Raised on the fringes of the Namib Desert, Quinton has spent a lifetime in the bush and is considered one of Southern Africa's leading bushcraft and survival specialists. He's been chilly in sub-Antarctica, and rather hot in the deserts of the Middle East. He's checked out the wastelands of Outer Mongolia, the jungles of the Amazon basin, and lived with the 'vanishing' tribes in Africa.
