1.0 out of 5 stars "Self Published" Self Flying, 31 Dec 2007
By B. Singh (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I don't know many seventy eight old women who have the guts to dream of flying an African safari. I must highly commend on this womans courage. This safari was perhaps a one of a life time experience for her & not many have the previledge to visit an exotic country such as Africa, that too hopping from one safari park to another.

Having said that, this book is an utter disaster. Period. In today's world of "YouTube" Ms. Feader has self published (using Xlibris Corporation) a jumble of half-hearted attempts of capturing her tour of bush flying. Her command on English prose is extremely wanting. Her faculty of capturing the excitement is appalling - a typical sentence would be "we saw a variety of animals amongst various birds". The photography is worse than that seen in the 1840's published literature (for a publication from 1998). She has admitted nearly every seventh page that she didn't take good photos or didn't know how to use her camera. The cover photo of this book is an extremely poor lighting video-grab of a headless person! That should say it all. She made a life times waste, of not using a professional editor. Cheap in = cheap out.

Her book has no depth, story to tell or any holding power what so ever. I had to muster courage many a times, to pick up this book so that I could finish it. What a waste of trees! Please save trees.

1.0 out of 5 stars Truly awful, avoid, 30 Nov 2008
By S. Rutherford - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm sorry, but it's a terrible book!

Given the subject matter, it is incredible that she has produced such drivel.

Sorry, lovely lady, appalling writer!

Avoid (ps mine for sale, any offer accepted!!!).
