Extracted from Czech (Kenneth), An Annotated Bibliography of African Big Game Hunting Books 1785-1999. (Trophy Room Books, Agoura, 2011) page 76: “Most of Decle’s narrative is of travel throughout East Africa with observations of the landscape and native life. There are a few descriptions of hunting antelope, rhinoceros and lion in Uganda, usually with little luck”.
