The Snow Leopard Project: And Other Adventures in Warzone Conservation by Alex Dehgan

5.0

I enjoyed being led through the afghan wilderness by a wildlife guide, and not told only the story of war. Of course the scars of war - destruction, violence, and pessimism - are not avoided, but they frame a story of hope. Light can be found in darkness, if you follow a conservationist with a head lamp and stubbornness for proving an extinct species lives (still have my fingers crossed for that Asiatic cheetah). There are humans on the brink, and yet there signs of optimism, descriptions of beautiful landscapes and cultural heritage, personal stories and the sense that all life - wild and human - can survive and thrive in that special place, if only given the chance. Give this a read!
