Introduction by Theodore Roosevelt. Chauncey Hugh Stigand was born in France in 1877 while his father was the British Consul there. He demonstrated early academic talents and was exposed to the maturing benefits of foreign travel at a youthful age. His cultured family background influenced the shaping of his career. He opted for the Army and obtained a commission. Later career moves provided considerable opportunities for hunting in East Africa and the Lado Enclave. He wrote many other titles on his experiences in Africa.
