But he began life in poverty, born and raised in a dirt-floor, straw-roofed hut in rural Burundi. \u003ci\u003eThe Chimpanzee Whisperer\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of his astonishing life journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also an African story. Receiving only an elementary education before he quit school, he suffered injustice and tragic loss because of his ethnic group. He began caring for orphaned and rescued chimps in Burundi. When the country descended into civil war and genocide, he was forced to flee with the chimps and endured long separation from his family. Continuing to work with and learn about chimpanzees in Kenya, Uganda, and later South Africa, he made himself into an incomparable authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHis memoir has adventure, danger, and many unique and touching stories about chimpanzees that show his bond with and understanding of them. As told to award-winning author David Blissett, it reveals a remarkable man who has refused to let circumstances defeat him. Conditioned by hate, wounded by loss, he has lived for love, faith, and compassion, giving new life, as Dr. Jane Goodall writes in her foreword, \"to so many chimpanzees whose families, like his own, were torn apart by violence.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"It was clear from the start that he had a real gift for working with these creatures... He was able to communicate with them in a special way to the point that we called him a 'chimpanzee whisperer.'...
