Alan Root is one of the great wildlife pioneers: his unmatched experience of East African wildlife and his appetite for risk have made him a world-class naturalist and film-maker.

IVORY, APES & PEACOCKS tells the story of his life’s work, from his arrival in Kenya as a young boy to the making of his game-changing films, including the first ever footage of the wildebeest migration from hot-air balloon, flying directly over the top of Kilimanjaro, filming inside a termite mound and diving with hippos.

In this extraordinary memoir we bear witness to a natural world now largely lost from view.
