African Paradise 1941

Overview

Osa Johnson, "The First Lady of Exploration", stars in this rare documentary -- lost for over 50 years!! After the success of her 1940 book, I Married Adventure, Osa Johnson was contracted to write three follow-up novels. The first of these, Four Years in Paradise, documented her and her husband Martin's exploits in the Northern Frontier District of Kenya, an area they dubbed "Lake Paradise", their own personal Garden of Eden. To promote the book, Osa embarked on an international speaking tour.
