Description

Wildflower is naturalist, filmmaker and lifelong conservationist Joan Root's gripping life story, a stunning and moving tale of a remarkable modern-day heroine. After twenty years of spectacular, unparalleled wildlife filmmaking together, Joan and Alan Root divorced and a fascinating woman found her own voice. Journalist Mark Seal offers this breathtaking, culturally relevant portrait of a strong woman discovering herself and fighting for her beliefs before her mysterious and brutal murder. With a cast of characters as wild, wondrous and unpredictable as Africa itself, Wildflower is a real-life adventure tale set in the world's fast-disappearing wilderness. Full of personal revelation, intrigue, corruption and murder, readers will remember Joan Root's extraordinary journey long after they turn the last page.
