Czech (Dr. Kenneth P.) An Annotated Bibliography of African Big Game Hunting Books 1785 – 1999, page 100: The author travelled through the then unexplored region of the Bahr-el-Abyad and the Bahr-el-Ghazal to hunt elephant and hippo. He followed the Blue Nile and writes of the wealth of sport along its banks, succeeding in collecting more elephant as well as crocodile, lion, and varieties of antelope. Quite a valuable book for its description of the terrain and peoples as well.
