The Game Animals of Africa

An excellent work that covers the natural history of both large and small game animals of Africa. Lydekker utilized segments of text he had written for The Great and Small Game of Africa edited by H. A. Bryden, with much new material added. Especially interesting are the hunting vignettes related by numerous sportsmen such as Selous, Neumann, Powell-Cotton and others from books and journal articles. Original brick red cloth edge-rubbed and slightly scuffed, gilt titles. Original 'zebra-skin' endpapers firm and tight. Contents clean and tight. A heavy book that will incur additional overseas postage from the U.S.
