In this epic adventure of destiny and betrayal in Namibia, two people pursue their hearts’ desire, with devastating consequences. Sixteen-year-old Ruben Odendaal knows little about romantic love. His whole life has unfolded within the bounds of the family farm, steeped in the shadows of painful racial tension and volatile politics. Then he meets Isabelle Hoffman, a girl with a universe of promise and possibility in her eyes, and suddenly, anything seems possible. But for all their deep yearning and devotion, Isabelle's mother has other plans, and their love is severed as quickly as it takes bloom. Decades later, when fate conspires to bring Ruben back into Isabelle’s life, time has only exacerbated their differences. Isabelle is now married to an affluent businessman, while Ruben longs to leave Africa and find a new beginning elsewhere. Namibia has also changed, but violence simmers alongside hate and despair. Longings deepen and secrets grow. Bound to pursue rekindled feelings, Isabelle and Ruben find the twin wills of power and prejudice before them, demanding an impossible sacrifice.

Hornbills are among the world’s most distinct birds. Easily recognized by their oversized beaks adorned with large casques, they range from Africa to India and throughout Asia. One of the oldest bird orders, they have been known to mankind for millennia and loom large in the mythology of indigenous cultures of tropical Asia. In the past thirty years, ecologists have uncovered many fascinating aspects of hornbill biology, from their unique nest-sealing behavior to their roles as farmers of the forest. Building on fourteen years of research, Margaret F. Kinnaird and Timothy G. O’Brien offer in Ecology and Conservation of Asian Hornbills the most up-to-date information on the evolution, reproduction, feeding ecology, and movement patterns of thirty-one species of Asian hornbills. The authors address questions of ecological functionality, ecosystem services, and keystone relationships, as well as the disturbing influence of forest loss and fragmentation on hornbills. Complemented by superb full-color images by renowned photographer Tim Laman that provide rare glimpses of hornbills in their native habitat and black-and-white illustrations by Jonathan Kingdon that highlight the intriguing aspects of hornbill behavior, Ecology and Conservation of Asian Hornbills will stand tall in the pantheon of natural history studies for years to come.
