Czech (Kenneth) An Annotated Bibliography of Big Game Hunting Books 1785 – 1999, page 49: ‘In this continuation of his sporting adventures abroad, Buxton travelled to the Haud region of Somaliland, bagging oryx, both lesser and greater kudu, hartebeest, gazelle and other antelope species. The more interesting chapters in this work take place in the Carpathians of Central Asia.’
