At seventy, they traded a manicured coastal home for a cottage deep in the South African bush, just outside Hoedspruit -- the country's self-styled safari capital. After decades of journalism and wildlife writing, Muirhead now lives inside the world he used to observe from a distance.He notices things. That wild animals don't grow old -- they get eaten long before they can be considered geriatric. That an elephant has its own opinions about your morning plans. That a leopard, unhurried, makes its own argument about what really matters at this stage of life.\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eA Wild Estate\u003c\/em\u003e is funny, tender, and unsentimental -- a memoir of growing older with the bush watching back.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Muirhead \u003c\/b\u003eis a journalist and author with books that including \u003cem\u003eCat Among the Pigeons, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Bedside Ark\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Clamour King\u003c\/em\u003e.
