Czech page 214 - "Patterson revisits the infamous sites of Tsavo, then treks into the nyika of British East Africa. Near the Karusi River, he bagged bushbuck, eland and kudu, and had numerous encounters with lions. There is a feverish encounter with a rogue elephant that kills Aladdin, Patterson's steed."

Hardback, original boards, spine slightly faded, new end papers, top edge gilt, a very good copy. These early editions are becoming scarce.
