Abundant fans in Whitefish, Montana. How about putting us on the tour and visit "the last best place".

I thoroughly enjoyed Paul's book, Dark Star Safari; its enlightining and entertaining. I was born in South Africa and i have travelled similiar routes as Paul in Africa and i concur with much of what he wrote, however i do feel that in some instances he has become the master of embellishment; for example he describes the road between South Africa and Mozambique as treacherous. I assume we did not utilise the same roads, since i have completed numerous journeys between the two countries and the roads on the South African side is comparable to roads in any first world country.
