Sobre este artículo
Stated first edition (in this series). A reprint from the original (ca. 1920), translated from the original Swedish by F. H. Lyon. The author was the husband of author Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen). Green textured paper covered boards with gilt print on the spine. Book shows little wear other than some spotting on the top page edges (only on the half adjacent to the spine). The dust jacket has two tears (1 cm each) along the lower edge and additional edge and corner wear throughout. The deckle-edged pages are clean, tight and unmarked, with 22 photos in black and white. A rather rare book. Part of a larger series of reprinted African hunting books from the 19th and early 20th centuries. The publishers included a disclaimer about their use of the original language and attitudes, much of which may be offensive by today's standards (see photo #5).
