Summary:
"Fifty years ago
Joy
Adamson
first introduced to the world the
story
of her life alongside
Elsa
the lioness, whom she had rescued as an orphaned cub, and raised at her home in Kenya. But as
Elsa
had been born free,
Joy
made the heartbreaking decision that she must be returned to the wild when she was old enough to fend for herself. Since the first publication of 'Born Free' and its sequels 'Living Free' and 'Forever Free', generations of readers have been enchanted, inspired and moved by these books' uplifting charm and the remarkable interaction between
Joy
and
Elsa
. Millions have also come to know and love 'Born Free' through the immortal film starring Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers. But here is the chance to rediscover the original
story
in this 50th anniversary edition, in the words of the woman who reared
Elsa
and walked with the lions."--From publisher.
