Lengangarangetengop. At no time in human history has a book started with that name, I bet.And so begins the true story of a Calgary mans life-changing journey to Africa and the start of his life-long friendship with a Samburu warrior with an impossibly long name. On his first day at a Kenyan nature reserve, elephant expert Les OBrien finds himself sought out by a park guide who is hungry to learn from him. But the tables quickly turn, and soon Lengangarangetengop - who graciously allows tourists to call him Steve and his friends to call him Tilas - becomes the teacher. Tilas not only shares his knowledge of his environment and the beauty of Africa with his new friend, he also teaches him about the way of the Samburu - a semi-nomadic people who carry everything they own with them as they travel the African plains. From his new friend, Les learns about loyalty, friendship, responsibility, environmental stewardship, and how to be a better human.More than a travel book, Call Me Steve is a story of self-discovery and friendship in a land like no other. This book will make you laugh, cry, and then google Samburu National Reserve so you can begin to arrange your own trip there....
