Description
1925 Theodore Roosevelt African Game Trails Illustrated HUNTING Sporting
“Knowing what's right doesn't mean much unless you do what's right.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
The twenty-sixth president of the United States was also a world-renowned hunter, conservationist, soldier, and scholar. In 1908 he took a long safari holiday in East Africa with his son Kermit. Roosevelt describes the excitement of the chase, the people he met, and flora and fauna he collected in the name of science. Long out of print, this classic is one of the preeminent examples of Africana and belongs on every collector's shelf. According to Czech, this work is
“one of the most famous of all big game hunting epics. In British East Africa, Roosevelt hunted lion and plains game on the Kapiti Plains, while, in the Bondoni Hill Country, he collected rhinoceros and giraffe.”
This 1925 edition features maps and photogravure illustrations bound in decorative cover boards.
