THE HUNTER IS UNDER DEATH BY T V BULPIN. FIRST EDITION 1962, HARDCOVER, FULLY INTACT DUST JACKET WITH MINOR WEAR AND TEAR AS SHOWN IN PICTURE, NO INSCRIPTIONS OR NAMES, 348 PAGES, IN GOOD CONDITION. "THIs BOok is without doubt the most remarkable true account ever written of adventure in Africa. From its start in 1921 in a Salvation Army soup kitchen in Durban until its climax in Tan-ganyika in 1946, the reader is transported into a world of tumul-tous and bizarre events. Here, for the first time, are the authentic details of an animalism, a lycanthropy and black magic almost beyond belief-the hyena cult of the Mbugwe people, the fearsome lion-men of the Singida district, and the twenty-two man-eaters of the Njombe district who killed and ate well over one thousand known human beings before nemesis brought them one by one to their own deaths in the solitude of the bush. Here also are the great characters of the twilight of adventure in Africa; Jim Sutherland, prince of elephant hunters; Bill Cumming and his companions of the Lupa Gold Rush; and George Rushby whose story this is, the young man who went to South Africa in search of a new life and all the curious and violent things that befell him until, as a game ranger of Tanganyika, he faced and defeated the dread man-eaters of the Njombe district." - Dust jacket

"The uproarious story of Bekenya, the greatest of all poachers, and his wild companions who followed the ivory trail, does for Rhodesia, Moçambique and the northern areas of the N.E. Transvaal, what Jock of the Bushveld has done for the men of the old Lourenço Marques road. Bvekenya (S.C. Barnard to give him his real name is almost a legend in the wilderness and on the great Limpopo river. Here he relives the strange adventures of ivory poaching, blackbirding and outlawry, which made him one c the most colourful of all personalities in Africa. We read of the hunts, fights, escapades and adventures of a man who was an outlaw for twenty years, an adventurer of the wilds who defied the police of three countries and fought a one-man war with complete success against all control and authority. The story of the king of the ivory poachers, as told by himself to T.V. Bulpin." - Dust jacket
