Description

Or explorations and discoveries during four years' wanderings in the wilds of South Western Africa. With a map and numerous illustrations representing sporting adventures, subjects of natural history, devices for destroying wild animals, & c. 1 volume. Second edition 1856. This is a near very good copy of the second London edition of 1856, issued in the same year as the first edition and really a second impression as it is otherwise identical to the first edition and the type has not lost its sharpness. Half-leather over marbled boards. Gilt title to spine. Mottled page-blocks. Bookplate on inside. xviii, 536 pages. Lithograph frontispiece plate. 14 [of 15] lithograph plates. In-text illustrations. 1 large fold-out map. "Famous early volume of African sport and travel a cornerstone book of African hunting in the mid-19th century" [Czech, An Annotated Bibliography of African Big Game Hunting Books, 1785 to 1950]. "Few, if any, books give so full and complete an account of Namaqualand, Damaraland, and the Ovampo country, and the description of the fauna of these countries is absolutely unequalled. Many exciting hunting adventures are depicted and the author obtained a great insight into the curious customs of the natives and their rulers" (Mendelssohn). A very nice copy.
