Sabrina Krief invites us into the intimacy of the lords of the African forest. Endowed with infinite patience, she has succeeded in gaining the trust of one of the world's densest chimpanzee communities, Sebitoli, in Uganda's Kibale National Park. Extraordinarily vivid thanks to excerpts from her field notebooks, this book lets us experience her endless waits, her doubts, her sorrows, her joys and her discoveries. Over the years spent in the Ugandan forest, Sabrina has learned to identify these chimpanzees at a glance, to perceive their personalities, moods and life stories. They are her best guide to the equatorial forest and its secrets.

Sabrina also shares with us her indignation at the social and environmental injustice that affects both the chimpanzees and the farmers who live around the national park. She shows us how chimpanzees manage to adapt to the growing presence of humans on their territory, and how much humans, in turn, could gain from making a place for their forest brethren alongside them.
