Talk about a page-turner! Kevin Robertson’s It Shouldn’t Happen is just that. The entire book chronicling his adventures and misadventures as a PH and veterinarian had me enthralled, laughing out loud, or both the entire book. Like the title says, the book talks about events that could only happen in Africa….and surely should NEVER have happened at all. More than once, Kevin and others are lucky to have lived to tell the tales. Definitely a FUN read!
Many of you here may have already read his shot placement book (which I have not read); from my understanding, it is a must-read for African hunters. Also if you haven't listened to any of his podcasts you are missing out! They are absolutely fascinating and tons of fun. Some of the stories he talks about are also in this book.
On a side note, Kevin has been a great supporter of Cries of the Savanna. I sent him a copy early on (when a friend suggested that I do so) and he loved the book, gave me a great testimonial, and hooked me up to be on some podcasts with others. The best part is that his wife Catherine ("Catherine the Great" as he refers to her) is writing a book about their life in Zimbabwe during the bush wars. They reached out to me for self-publishing advice...and long story short, I now consider Catherine a dear friend. I was fortunate to be a beta-reader of her book. It was so fun to hear some of the same stories that I read in her book told through Kevin's eyes in It Shouldn't Happen. Don't worry! I'll let you know when her book is available.
