TRAVELS ON MY ELEPHANT

With the help of a Maratha nobleman, Mark Shand buys an elephant named Tara and rides her over six hundred miles across India to the Sonepur Mela, the world's oldest elephant market. This is the story of their epic journey across India, from packed highways to dusty back roads where communities were unchanged for millennia. What began as an adventurous whim has developed, decades later, into a life of campaigning to provide vital migratory corridors for these magnificent creatures whose habitat is under constant assault from man.
