Summary: AFRICA'S GREATEST HUNTER the lostwritingsof frederick selous
Comment: THIS IS ABOUT THE THEN AND THERE NOT THE HERE AND NOW. DR CASADA HAS GIVEN US THE ACTUAL NON-PC EDITION OF THE FACTS IE. SELOUS' ACTUAL WRITINGS.THIS IS NOT ABOUT PHOTO "SAFARIS" IN THE BELLY OF A VOLKSWAGEN TOUR BUS NOR THE CUSHIONED SEAT OF A TOYOTA SAFARI 4WD...BUT WORN BOOTS, HOLEY SOCKS AND BONEY HORSES DYING IN THE FLY BELTS OF A FRONTIER. YOU SEE THIS WAS AT THE SAME TIME WE WERE FINISHING OUR WESTWARD EXPANSION IN THE U.S. , THAT FREDERICK COURTENEY SELOUS [FCS] WAS TRAVERSING THE BLACK CONTINENT BEFORE THE PC "B" WORD MEANT ANYTHING SO HOMOGENOUS AS OUR THIRTY-SOMETHING POPULACE WOULD UNDERSTAND "BLACKS" AND "INDIANS" TO BE. IF YOU LIKE A CONDENSED MICHENER WITH LOTS OF GEOGRAPHY,GEOLOGY,ANTHROPOLOGY AND ANIMALS THAT WILL PUT YOU IN THEIR BELLY...WELL DR.CASADA HAS DONE THOUSANDS OF HOURS OF RESEARCH TO COMPILE WHAT YOU WANTED TO SEE...THE REAL FCS THROUGH HIS OWN WORDS. THANK YOU JIM CASADA YOU TRULY HAVE DONE A PHD [PILED HIGHER & DEEPER] WORTH OF WORK BRINGING THIS ADVENTEROUS HISTORY BACK TO LIFE.

Summary: africa's greatest hunter
Comment: This is a superb book for anyone who has ever wanted to feel like they were a part of a safari without actually being there.Selous was one of the best white hunters to step foot on the continent,so this book is worth looking into.
