After months of preparation, Goodall (with her mother, Vanne Goodall) began research in Tanzania’s Gombe National Park. Leakey then offered her the opportunity to conduct a study on chimps in the wild. Goodall was thrilled to accept the position of assistant secretary there and accompanied Leakey on paleontological digs in the Olduvai Gorge. Friends in Kenya introduced her to British anthropologist and paleontologist Louis Leakey, the curator at the National Museum of Natural History in Nairobi. She yearned to see African wildlife and worked as a secretary in the UK to save money for a trip. This study guide refers to the Kindle edition of the book.Ĭhapters 1 and 2, “Beginnings” and “Early Days,” explain how Goodall first traveled to East Africa in her early twenties. ![]()
