More DescriptionA must-purchase for all lovers of Selous! This second book on Selous, edited by Africana expert Dr. James Casada, completes the work on the lost writings by Selous begun in Africa's Greatest Hunter. Read Selous's incomparable descriptions of African game, from antelope to elephant, and his descriptions of hunting caribou in Newfoundland. In the second part of this volume, some of Selous's friends shed light on the great hunter. Included are essays by Theodore Roosevelt and the great journalist W. T. Stead, who gives a fascinating analysis of Selous's entire life. Also included is an article published in 1896 in the Daily News that was written by a pushy journalist who hopped into a hansom cab occupied by Selous. As in the other Selous book by Safari Press, this volume is extensively annotated by Dr. James Casada with comments and biographical notes.
