Five Years in the Sudan

Fothergill, Edward

Hurst & Blackett, 1910

Bound in publisher's red cloth.  Mylar cover. Hardcover. Good binding and cover. 32 photographic plates. xvi. 327 pages. Dampstain to outer edge, bottom margin doesn't effect text (but does effect the frontispiece portrait). "The author travelled through the then unexplored region of the Bahr-el-Ahyad and the Bahr-el-Ghazal to hunt elephant and hippo. He followed the Blue Nile and writes of the wealth of sport along its banks, succeeding in collecting more elephant as well as crocodile, lion, and varieties of antelope. Quite a valuable book for its description of the terrain and peoples as well" Czech, p.59. Exploration and Discovery 1576-1939: The Library of Franklin Brooke-Hitching Part 2, D-J.
