“Running with rhinos” is not a euphemism—not when you’re ground support for the International Rhino Foundation’s Rhino Conservancy Project. Edward M. Warner, a self-proclaimed radical conservationist, presents his outrageous adventures from more than a decade of collaboration with the veterinarians and biologists who care for endangered rhinos in Africa. Few if any laymen like Warner have been invited to do what amounts to some of the most dangerous volunteer fieldwork around. Fewer than five thousand black rhinos remain in the wilds of sub-Saharan Africa. About five hundred live on private conservancies in Zimbabwe. For Warner, working on the frontlines of rhino conservation not only allowed him to help rhinos, it gave him the opportunity to pursue and refine his emerging philosophy of radical conservationism, to cultivate partnerships between local communities and private landowners in Africa, and to export the lessons about land and wildlife management back home to the United States. In Running with Rhinos: Stories from a Radical Conservationist, Warner takes readers along as he weasels his way into becoming volunteer ground support for the International Rhino Foundation’s Rhino Conservancy Project, or “Rhino Ops,” in Zimbabwe. It is gritty, sweaty, sometimes scary, and exhilarating work. Warner succeeds in telling a remarkable story of the extraordinary bonds between humans—and their dedication to protecting endangered animals—all while weaving eye-opening stories about the flora, fauna, geology, geography, and politics of sub-Saharan Africa.

The experience of running the London Marathon is all kinds of wonderful, topped off with lots of delicious amazing and served up with a side order of downright incredible. This book follows my journey to the marathon as I pound the streets, dress up in a rhino costume to visit eight different parkruns, and try to think of lots of interesting ways to raise money for Save The Rhino International. When I decided to run the London Marathon I wanted to immerse myself in the experience as much as possible. Part of that immersion was to read every account I could find from people who had been involved themselves. I found several existing books, which I review in these pages, but I wanted more and realised that other people might feel the same. This is my attempt to give you a little of what I craved at that time. This book describes in detail the experience of running the marathon from the point of view of quite a slow plodder. It will give you a real flavour of what it feels like to take part and a taste of the joy of it all. All proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the charity, Save The Rhino.
