The book is by Prof. Tim Clutton-Brock.
Title is Meerkat Manor, The story of Flower
of the Kalahari.
TCB is he head of the scientific project that
has been studying the kats from Cambridge University.
In the US you can obtain it via Amazon.

I've ordered a copy and waiting on it's arrival.
Can't wait!

Thanks JerseyKat Now I understand the book. And I am so going to buy it. I can order it online, can I buy it at like Barnes&Noble or something? If not the I'll order it online.. I dont mind as long as I get it.

Haven't seen it in any of the brick and mortar bookstores (meaning a physical store not online). But they should be able to order it if you give them the title, author and the ISBN number. You can get the ISBN off of Amazon.
Happy Hunting.

I don't know if they have plans to release the book in the U.S. I ordered mine from Amazon.com and it came pretty quickly. The book starts with Flowers birth and ends at her death.It has a lot of scientific information that strays from the meerkats, but it's a wonderful book, with great pictures. You can see how tiny the meerkats really are. Well worth getting.

The book is awesome and unless you are flat out broke, it is worth every single penny.

Thanks you guys From what you've all said it sounds like the best book in the world I am definantley going to make sure I get it. But how long does it take exactly? My mom said she would buy it for me for Christmas, but will it be here in time if she orders in it like a few daye? Cant wait to get it. If I get it(which I'm certain I will) I will look at it everyday

HEY I'M GETTINT THE BOOK!!!! My mom said she'd buy it for me!!! One problem though.... is it available in the U.S. in any book stores? Because if she gets it for me for X-MAS it wont be here in time. She said if it isnt available in stoes it wont be here for christmas. Whick i dont mind cause i'm gettin it no matter what.
So can i buy it in stores?

Yeah!!!!
Ordered my copy last week and just got it yesterday. Did the speed read and it was fantastic.
Going to take the next week to leisurely read each chapter.
Love the inside cover art by TCB's wife.
