Condition: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1954). 1933 1st edition. Small 8vo (128 x 195mm). Ppx,214 + 8pp publisher's catalogue. Not illustrated. Brown cloth, upper board and spine titled in black. Ex-library with usual faults and stamps, rather foxed. Reading co…py only, in poor dust-wrapper. A new kind of book on the subject by a hunter-naturalist whose experience of wild Africa dates the early part of the century. The most thrilling exploits of the famous African hunters are here related, from the days of the old foot-safari and the four-bore elephant gun, to modern methods where the hunter has all the facilities of motor transport and high-velocity weapons. The thrill of the chase is the same. the lion still creeps on the camp in the dark, rainy nights, the bad elephant charges with nerve-shattering violence and uproar, the wounded buffalo lurks in the thickets to fall like an avalanche on his fool-hardy enemy. .

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1933). 1933 1st edition. Small 8vo (128 x 195mm). Ppx,214 + 8pp publisher's catalogue. Not illustrated. Brown cloth, upper board and spine titled in black. Owner's name to front end-paper, cloth slightly stained, some browning but good c…opy. Lacks dust-wrapper. More exciting tales of African adventure. This is one of Stoneham's scarcer books. "In these stories I have tried to give information about the lives of African beasts and the men who hunt them. The tales are presented in the form of fiction, in accordance with the taste of the author and the public, but in all but one instance the habits and adventures of animals and men coincide with personal observation and authentic report. The exception is the story 'The Bear of the Nandi,' which is purely imaginary, for no white man has ever seen the creature which causes such terror among the inhabitants of Nandi and Lumbwa, and natives' accounts of it are contradictory and legendary." Chapters include:- Companions of the night; Disputed meat; A bad memory; One glorious hour; War in the reeds; The slayers; Hunted!; The oryx bull; The bear of the Nandi; Hours of shadow; Repayment in kind; Jino-Moja; The perilous night; The savage of thorn and sand. .
