 Born Free: A Lioness of
Two Worlds Author-Joy Adamson
Joy Adamson's touching and remarkable TRUE story of a
lion cub in transition between the captivity in which she is raised and the wild to which
she is returned captures the abilities of both humans and animals to cross the seemingly
unbridgeable gap between their radically different worlds. It
clearly shows that even wild animals are individuals capable of great trust, understanding
and affection. Many photos. Video with same title. This
true account of Elsa's life and the Adamson's determination to return her to the wild with
her own kind stands the test of time as a great story, wonderfully written.
