AFRICAN GAME TRAILS: AN ACCOUNT OF THE AFRICAN WANDERINGS OF AN AMERICAN HUNTER-NATIONALIST BY THEODORE ROOSEVELT, FIRST EDITION REPRINTED IN THE SAME YEAR. HARDCOVER, CLOTHBOUND, 1910, 534 PAGES, EX LIBRARY BOOK WITH STAMPS, IN GOOD CONDITION CONSIDERING AGE.
"The twenty-sixth president of the United States was also a world-renowned hunter, conservationist, soldier, and scholar. African Game Trails includes stories about President Theodore Roosevelt adventures throughout East Africa, Belgian Congo, Mombassa, Khartoum, and more. In 1908 Teddy took a long safari holiday in East Africa with his son Kermit. His account of this adventure is as remarkably fresh today as it was when these adventures on the veldt were first published. Roosevelt describes the excitement of the chase, the people he met (including such famous hunters as Cunninghame and Selous), 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."
