In his first ever full length essay, Journalist Paul Steyn joins a team of scientists, explorers and baYei bushmen as they transect the Okavango Delta on traditional mokoros - a journey in support of World Heritage Status for the vast wetland. This fast-paced narrative takes the reader right into the middle of the expedition, where they find themselves navigating receding floodplains inhabited by extremely territorial wildlife, over pristine islands where giant populations of elephants roam, and into the heart of this primordial African wilderness. It’s a celebration of the beauty and peril of the Okavango. And the human spirit to preserve it.
