Synopsis

Excerpt from Two African Trips: With Notes and Suggestions on Big Game Preservation in Africa

The descriptive chapters in this volume deal with the modest events of two holiday trips in Africa, one in British East Africa, the other in the Soudan. In each case I spent a little over a month in a good game-district, shooting, photographing, and travelling gently from camp to camp. These pages are little more than a transcription of my field-notes which I have put into a permanent form for the benefit of friends who are interested in the same subjects as I am. With these I have combined reproduc tions from some of my photographs which seemed best to illustrate the daily incidents of such journeys and the characteristics of the people and wild animals which I encountered. In fact, it would be better described as a picture-book than a volume of travels.
