Publisher's green hardcover binding with illustrated dust jacket.

222pp. Illustrated.

Scarce original jacket has some wear along the edges. The original price on the front flap is intact. A piece of clear adhesive tape has been placed over a tear at the spine tail. There is some foxing on the prelims and light occasional foxing internally.

This is one of Burger's more elusive titles.

A record of adventure along the hunting trails of Africa. The author starts his journey from one of the dusty roads of the ancient Karoo, continuing through the desolate Kalahari desert and up to the damp and oppressively hot jungles of the Back Congo, and finally ends at the Lupa Goldfield in Tanganyika (modern Zambia).
