Synopsis

Explore Africa’s wild world and the delicate balance between nature and people through a seasoned hunter’s note of discovery.


In these excerpts, readers follow the author as he traces how wildlife, disease, climate, and human settlement shape the landscapes from the Chobi to the Zambesi. The narrative blends field observations with historical context, offering a grounded portrait of life in southern and south-eastern Africa during the late 19th century.



  • See how tse-tse flies and buffalo movements influence where animals roam and how people settle.

  • Learn about long histories of exploration, from Livingstone’s journeys to Makololo challenges and Makololo leaders.

  • Understand how cattle posts, rinderpest, and shifting populations changed the map of this region.

  • Experience practical field detail on habitats, seasonality, and the beasts that call this land home.


Ideal for readers drawn to nature writing, African history, and first-hand expedition accounts.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
