About this book
In *The Heart of a Hunter* Laurens van der Post takes up the store he began in *The Lost World of the Kalahari*, his stirring account of his search in the scorching interior for the last of the Bushmen. In that book he described their vanishing pattern of life; here he explores the very sources of the Bushmen's spirit and imagination – their dreams and stories, the legends that guide them and inspire them in their daily battles with that harshest of environments, the Kalahari.
