Friends often ask mammalogist John Herbert about his life in Africa and the Caribbean, so he would tell stories about his family and their experiences, and they would often respond, "You should write a book." His children, having been born in Africa, and African friends would question, "What was it like growing up in America?" Over time, he began to write short stories. Meanderings & Reflections of a Life is the result, spanning growing up in a small mid-western town in America and life as a wildlife ecologist in various parts of Africa. About the Author John Herbert was the ecologist I/C in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe from 1970-1975, and a Forestry Commission ecologist from 1991-1993. He had been a mammalogist on a mammal collecting team for the Smithsonian Institution from 1964-1966 in Mozambique, South Africa, Rhodesia, Bechuanaland, and Nigeria. He was an ecologist in the formation of Kouf National Park in El Beida, Libya and a manager of two islands off the coast of Puerto Rico where the US Government raised Rhesus and Patas monkeys. Currently he is retired, living in his hometown, and involved in local environmental issues and restoring old guns.
