One of those scarce Afrikaans hunting books seldom seen in this good condition. I find no information about Sproul or his book anywhere on the internet or in any hunting book references. As with Von Moltke's hunting books - Veldsmanne and Jagkonings, this one is also not taken up into Czech's bibliography of African Big Game Hunting Books 1785 to 1950.

Sproul se vertellinge is rondom die gebied van Ngamiland 1947. Hy vertel van die mensvreter van Boea, Boesman jagters, jag by die Luangwarivier in die Masenga-vallei van Midde Afrika, Tjobe-moerasse, jag van wildehonde by die Thamelekane rivier, renoster jag by Loeangwa, verby Lundazi.

176 pages. Name stamp of previous owner on title page. Beige cloth covers with title to front and the spine. A good copy.
