In the heart of Africa, the Masai Mara Game Reserve is a place where, in place of justice and fairness, raw power rules the day, and to survive means to fight. Lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, buffalo, gazelles, and other large mammals roam the vast, rolling plains of the reserve, and with so many species competing for space and food, the stakes are high, and danger looms at every turn. In African Cats: Kingdom of Courage , filmmakers Keith Scholey and Amanda Barrett follow the lives of some of the Masai Mara’s big cats, focusing on two lionesses and a cheetah and her adorable cubs. This companion book to their incredible film offers a fascinating exploration of the unique, yet interwoven, stories of each cat. Filled with stunning photographs of the Kenyan plains and the remarkable animals that reside on them, this book will take you on an unforgettable journey chronicling the struggle to survive.

Amanda Barrett Growing up with an interest in environmental politics and conservation, Amanda joined the BBC's Natural History Unit where she became an assistant producer on Owen Newman's Arctic fox film for the BBC's recurring series, "The Natural World." Since then, Barrett and Newman have made numerous films together in diverse countries such as Australia, Brazil, Namibia, Kenya, Tanzania, and Zambia. Barrett has written articles for BBC Wildlife and been a principal contributor to several successful books to accompany BBC series such as "Wild Africa" and "Nature's Great Events."

African Cats
This book is fascinating account of the efforts of the film makers to find and keep track of a pride of lions and a cheetah family in the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya, Africa. This book takes the reader into the lives of these wild cats and the ongoing struggle to survive. Within a few pages, the reader becomes attached to these magnificent animals, despite the often brutal nature of their existence. Anyone can enjoy the stunning photography. The writing, which is very good, quickly became secondary as I eagerly followed the experiences of both the animals and the film makers. This is film-making at its best. Highly recommended.

African Cats but for the grown ups
A beautiful book on the photography side. The downside is it was meant for my child who loved the African Cats movie, but is written much more for adults, in documentary style. Even reading pages to her the language is a bit too technical and "adult". Doesn't take away from the skill, passion etc of the authors but this is not a book for children below teenagers I think even if you plan to read it to them.

Great book for a great movie
The book is beautiful, and arrived in perfect conditions. The photography is gorgeous, and they expand on certain details that were not fully developed in the movie. It also has some pieces of illustration that I did not expect, and were a delightful surprise. I really enjoyed the movie, and am glad that the book supplemented the experience.

Great Book!
I saw the movie and I just have this book. I'm sooo excited to know those cheetahs were the one I knew from "Big Cat Diary". Book explains much better about the lives of Lions and Cheeaths. And so many wonderful pictures. I'm so proud to have this book in my collection.
