From Where Lions Speak
About the Book
When a lifelong dream refuses to fade, it becomes a calling.
For Doug Andonian, Africa was that calling—a place he first met in the pages of a borrowed magazine and spent a lifetime longing to stand within.
From Where Lions Speak follows Doug’s remarkable journey from an ordinary New England childhood to the heart of the African bush, where the wild delivers lessons no classroom ever could. In landscapes alive with predator and prey, he confronts fear, finds unexpected peace, and discovers a profound sense of belonging he never knew was missing.
