It's a quick overview of some of the work that Ms. O'Connell and her colleagues are doing in Etosha National Park in Namibia. She's been working there for something like 20 years and has made significant contributions to the study of elephant communication. This book is more of an overview of the stages of elephant life. It's beautifully illustrated with photographs taken during the course of her work at Etosha and the photographs specifically illustrate some of the behaviors that are described in the book. I especially appreciated her insight into the lives of bull elephants, which aren't as well understood as the family lives of elephants. She is able to paint a rich picture of their lives and contributes to our understanding of the depth and sensitivity of these amazing beings. Great stuff and I'm grateful that a book like this is available. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spectacular photos! Amazing insight! Wow! *by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2012* Most of us cannot even begin to imagine the depth of the family interactions that are part of an elephant's life in the wild. Yet O'Connell and Rodwell have given us these phenomenally high quality photos that capture the most personal moments of these elephants' lives. Not only is this is an entire book of photos that are so rich they are each suitable for framing, but these photos capture this family of elephants in ways that, I swear, it is like they capture the elephants feelings. The bulls look like the "dudes" and the mother elephant's tenderness towards her baby is palpable in these photos. The text gave me deep insight into the very private world of this elephant family yet it is written in a way that all readers can enjoy. After reading this book I felt like I was privy to the deepest family secrets of this group of elephants and very grateful for this glimpse into the elephants' world. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This picture book is a perfect accompaniment to Elephant Don *by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2015* I recently met Caitlin O'Connell at a presentation she did for the Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, TN. I was so impressed with her book she was signing there, that I bought these as well. This picture book is a perfect accompaniment to Elephant Don: The Politics of a Pachyderm Posse, which I also recommend.She speaks of all the ways the male elephants meet and greet each other, and also when they are angry. This picture book shows all that... and more. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/1697411-an-elephants-life-an-intimate-portrait-from-africa-hardcover-november](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/1697411-an-elephants-life-an-intimate-portrait-from-africa-hardcover-november) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
