Book: A Lion Called Christian, by Anthony Bourke

I saw this video today for the first time and I have to admit, it brought tears to my eyes, it's so touching...... I can't wait to read this book.
The story is about two Australian men John and Ace, who bought a lion cub from Harrod's in London in 1969, they raised it,and then took it to be released into the wilds of Africa when they realized that they could no longer keep him. A chance encounter with Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna led to a new life for Christian.
In 1971, he was flown to Kenya and returned to the wild by lion-man George Adamson.
