Peter Allison

Peter Allison is an Australian writer whose books have focused on his time as an African safari guide, as well as his time in South America.

Allison grew up in Sydney but at the age of 16 won a scholarship for study in Japan.[1] At 19 he travelled to Africa and became a guide for the Classic Safari Company.[2]
