Beryl Markham was an English author who emigrated to Kenya in her childhood. Her life was marked by adventure and nonconformity, becoming Kenya's first licensed horse trainer and an accomplished pilot. She captured her experiences and independent spirit in her most famous memoir, which was rediscovered years later and found renewed popularity. Her writing is often associated with wild landscapes and an untamed soul.
