From inside the book:"THE experiences of other wandering hunters have always had so much interest for me, that I have ventured, perhaps presumptuously, to conclude that my own may possibly be thought worthy of perusal by those with similar savage tastes. Even then I should hardly have made bold to wield so unaccustomed a weapon as the pen, were it not that my elephant-hunting has been done in regions hitherto unvisited by the hunter. This circumstance, and the fact that my account is of quite recent adventures, describing faithfully, to the best of my ability, the country and game as they actually are to-day—an important quality in the value of such matter —may, I hope, tend to justify my present more daring enterprise. ...However, for those amiable sympathisers to whom the descriptions of how I killed elephants can have no interest, my account of how one of these animals very nearly killed me may afford pleasure; and if that should be tempered by disappointment because it was not altogether successful, they may hope that vengeance may yet be consummated. Akin to the heathenish propensity of my early youth above alluded to, was an attempt I remember to have made to get out of sight of houses in a secluded part of a common and fancy myself in an uninhabited country; and among the prophecies uttered at a later period by observant Kafirs, who noticed the development of my unquenchable thirst for prying further and further into remote wastes, was one to the effect that I should end by dying in a far wilderness, inhabited only by wild beasts, where no smoke could be seen the horizon round."CONTENTSCHAPTER I FIRST EXPEDITION FROM MOMBASACHAPTER II ON THE JAMBENI RANGECHAPTER III CAMPING AT MOUNT KENIACHAPTER IV THE NDOROBO COUNTRYCHAPTER V NDOROBO ELEPHANT-HUNTINGCHAPTER VI RETURN TO MOMBASACHAPTER VII SECOND EXPEDITIONCHAPTER VIII EXCURSIONS FROM EL BOGOICHAPTER IX EXCURSIONS FROM EL BOGOI (continued)CHAPTER X EXCURSIONS FROM EL BOGOI (continued)CHAPTER XI FROM EL BOGOI TO LAKE RUDOLPHCHAPTER XII LAKE RUDOLPHCHAPTER XIII A SOJOURN AT RESHIAT AND KERE"CHAPTER XIV RETURN TO LAKE RUDOLPHCHAPTER XV RETURN TO LAKE RUDOLPH (continued)CHAPTER XVI EN ROUTE FOR EL BOGOICHAPTER XVII CAMPING AT EL BOGOICHAPTER XVIII EL BOGOI TO MOMBASAThis book published in 1898 has been reformatted for the Kindle and may contain an occasional defect from the origina publication or from the reformatting.
