This past week (Tuesday to be precise), a book by Prince Harry (Spare) was officially published in the west and could be hitting the shelves of local bookshops in no time. Prince Harry is the son of King Charles and younger brother to Prince William, who will succeed the former. William is the heir and Harry is \u201cthe spare heir\u201d, hence the title of a book that generally pays glowing tribute to Botswana. The Okavango Delta is a game-rich tourist hotspot and one very popular with European royalty and Hollywood stars.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A fox that Harry encountered in London reminded him of \u201cthe leopard in Botswana\u201d which \u201cseemed like a messenger, sent to me from some other realm.\u201d Harry has made some friends in the Delta and from the memoir\u2019s description, these friends would be the proprietors of the luxury resorts that only the deep-pocketed can afford. In recollecting an encounter with an Australian friend called George Hill, he refers to his friends in the Delta as \u201cthe gang in Botswana.\u201d He writes in Spare: \u201cI\u2019d point out to George what the gang in Botswana had pointed out to me. See that bright one next to the moon? That\u2019s Venus. And over there, that\u2019s Scorpius\u2014best place to see it is the southern hemisphere. And there\u2019s Pleiades. And that\u2019s Sirius\u2014brightest star in the sky. And there\u2019s Orion: the Hunter. All comes down to hunting, doesn\u2019t it? Hunters, hunted&#8230;.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The English prince became friendly enough with George and another man called Marko to bring them to Botswana. At the time, he was dating a Zimbabwean-born girl called Chelsy Davy. Her family had left Zimbabwe when she was 14 amid political and economic unrest in the country, and moved to England. Elsewhere it has been stated that Harry and Chelsy holidayed in Botswana \u201cwhere they shared their first kiss.\u201d In Spare, Harry recalls an episode during this romance when \u201cI told her [Chelsy] that George and Marko and I were all heading off the next day to Botswana.\u201d It was from his Australian friends that Harry acquired the nickname \u201cSpike.\u201d In his younger years, Harry had a reputation as a hard partier and during one outing in Las Vegas, got very drunk and his head started \u201cfilling up with ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One was doing something with which he would always remember the Las Vegas trip. \u201cI need something to commemorate this trip, I decided. Something to symbolize my sense of freedom, my sense of carpe diem,\u201d he writes adding that he decided on memorialising this moment by getting a tattoo about something was important to him. \u201cI thought and thought. What\u2019s important to me? What\u2019s sacred? Of course\u2014Botswana. I\u2019d seen a tattoo parlour down the block. I hoped they\u2019d have a good atlas, with a clear map of Botswana,\u201d he writes.<\/p>\n<p>In his stupor, he had completely overlooked the fact that as a royal, he lived a regimented life and a tattoo was the last indulgence he could allow himself. Fortunately for him, his companions not only had the presence of mind to dissuade him but a plan of their own of how to do so: \u201cIn fact, they promised to physically stop me. I was not going to get a tattoo, they said, not on their watch, least of all a foot tattoo of Botswana. They promised to hold me down, knock me out, whatever it took.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, he gave in and the party trooped off to a hotel nightclub \u201cwhere I curled into the corner of a leather banquette and watched a procession of young women come and go, chatting up my mates.\u201d Where they had threatened to physically restrain Harry to avoid a tattoo scandal, the mates invited \u201cfour or five girls\u201d who worked at a hotel along with two women who worked at the blackjack tables to his suite. In the wee hours of the morning, the party played strip pool \u2013 a game in which losers take off an item of clothing. \u201cTen minutes later I was the big loser, reduced to my skivvies. Then I lost my skivvies. It was harmless, silly, or so I thought. Until the next day. Standing outside the hotel in the blinding desert sun I turned and saw one of my mates staring at his phone, his mouth falling open.<\/p>\n<p>He told me: Spike, one of those blackjack girls secretly snapped a few photos&#8230;and sold them.\u201d Looking back on this incident, Harry determined the tattoo to have been a much safer option than the photos. \u201cThese photos would never go away. They were permanent. They\u2019d make a foot tattoo of Botswana look like a splodge of Indian ink.\u201d In the Delta, Harry met and became friends with Mike and Teej, a filmmaker couple that also own a safari camp. With the encouragement of this couple, Harry embarked on a four-month fact-finding trip to educate himself \u201cabout the truth of the ivory war.\u201d Resultantly, he visited Botswana, Namibia, Tanzania and South Africa. Down the road, Harry would fatefully meet an American actress called Meghan Markle.<\/p>\n<p>In Botswana, she would be called Coloured (her father is white, her mother black) but in the United States she is classified as black. Meghan is friends with Serena Williams, the tennis star and in a year that the book doesn\u2019t mention, happened to have been in London to cheer on Williams at Wimbledon. When she met up with Harry later at a restaurant for dinner, he suggested that they holiday in Botswana. \u201cI gave her my best Botswana pitch. Birthplace of all humankind. Most sparsely populated nation on earth. True garden of Eden, with 40 percent of the land given over to Nature. Plus, the largest number of elephants of any nation on earth. Above all, it was the place where I\u2019d found myself, where I always re-found myself, where I always felt close to\u2014magic?<\/p>\n<p>If she was interested in magic, she should come with me, experience it with me. Camp under the stars, in the middle of nowhere, which is actually Everywhere.\u201d At a point where Harry and Meghan had gone public with their romance and Queen Elizabeth had granted \u201cpermission\u201d for the lovers to marry, he had a designer make a wedding ring for her. Along with two diamonds from a bracelet that had been worn by his mother, Princess Diana, Harry added a third \u2013 \u201ca blood-free diamond from Botswana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere it has been reported that Harry proposed to Meghan in Botswana but the book tells a different story. After getting the Queen\u2019s permission to marry Meghan, he proposed to her in an intimate setting that was purposefully designed to look like his favourite place. \u201cI led her out to the garden. Cold night. We were both wrapped in big coats, and hers had a hood lined with fake fur that framed her face like a cameo. I set electric candles around the blanket. I wanted it to look like Botswana, the bush, where I\u2019d first thought of proposing.\u201d The book is the first of its kind and is flying off bookshelves. The more people read the book, the more the world will get to know about Botswana.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/botswana\">Botswana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Botswana.
