The book captures the astonishing settings and design ingenuity of the 21st-century safari destination--from the classic lodges of Kenya to the indulgent resorts of South Africa and the inspired eco-designed camps of Rwanda. Handpicked for their outstanding locations in wildlife enclaves, and for their distinctly regional architecture and interiors, these special properties represent the ultimate African encounter.

Safari: a Swahili word, from the Arabic safara, meaning journeyThe safari is not just a holiday; it's a spiritual and physical journey, offering an opportunity to recharge, reconnect, and escape from the cerebral and virtual into the real, instinctive world. Africa is still the continent of wanderers, but the lodge has become a destination in itself, rather than a camp along the way. The new safari aesthetic fuses high-end design with traditional African craft to create highly original, courageous and soulful architecture and interiors. This careful attention to detail also serves to highlight the unique character of the environment – and the importance of preserving it. Safari Style Africa explores the most spectacular of these lodges, each one encapsulating the spirit of place, of Africa itself and its many faces, and providing a gateway into the wild beauty of its setting.

One of the most breathtaking realms of the world becomes an inspiration for design in this visual survey of the many bold styles of the African safari camp. The seduction of mosquito netting undulating in the wind, the opulence of rich Oriental rugs on a lush savanna, the classic civility of silver antiques, and the nostalgia of a wardrobe trunk packed with khaki, silk and lace are just some of the defining elements of the safari style. From the tip of Cape Town to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Safari Chic transports readers to settings and personalities steeped in nostalgia and charm. Among the many locations that appear for the first time i print are Hemingway's wife's "Casa Matata" in the highlands of Kenya, the luxurious Finch-Hatton safari camp in the wilderness of Tanzania, Conservation Corporation's contemporary game lodges South Africa's most elusive camp, Abu Elephant Back Safari Camp in the waterlands of the kavango Delta in Botswana. In addition to being a dream album for travelers, Safari Chic offers interior design photographs presenting creative solutions for the home that can be achieved with domestic merchandise and ethnic crafts, no matter how far you live from the majestic plains of Africa. Bibi Jordan's radiant photographs so powerfully evoke the tawny continent that one can almost hear the grass rustling and the lion roaring. Also included are a shopper's guide and a safari accommodation guide.

An African safari is arguably one of the most alluring and easily understood dreams of our time. Just the thought of an African safari evokes thoughts of adventure, a journey through nature's greatest spectacle, a glimpse of the earth before man. African Safari is an exploration of all that the word safari encompasses, from journeys on horseback and dugout canoes, the quiet drifting of a balloon and the tension of waiting on foot to the smell of dung, soil and the rain. African Safari is an intimate odyssey through the great wilderness of Africa and an eye on its wild denizens, spiced with the echoes of a romantic history. African Safari is divided into eight chapters: South Africa (Kruger & the Kgalagadi)Namibia (Etosha, Damaraland and Kaokaland)Botswana (Okavango, Chobe, and Linyanti)Zimbabwe (Mana Pools and the Zambezi) Zambia (North and South Luangwa)Tanzania (Ngorongoro and the Serengeti)Kenya (Masai Mara, Amboseli, and Tsavo) Rwanda & Uganda (Parc des Volcans and Mgahinga).

There are some things which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are the very simplest things, and because it takes a man's life to know them the little new that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave. In the winter of 1933, Ernest Hemingway and his wife Pauline set out on a two-month safari in the big-game country of East Africa, camping out on the great Serengeti Plain at the foot of magnificent Mount Kilimanjaro. “I had quite a trip,” the author told his friend Philip Percival, with characteristic understatement. Green Hills of Africa is Hemingway's account of that expedition, of what it taught him about Africa and himself. Richly evocative of the region's natural beauty, tremendously alive to its character, culture, and customs, and pregnant with a hard-won wisdom gained from the extraordinary situations it describes, it is widely held to be one of the twentieth century's classic travelogues.
