1889 HUNTING 1ed East African BIG GAME Willoughby Hippos Elephants Rhinos MAP



John C Willoughbys “East African and its Big Game” is a rare, 19th-century history of hunting in Africa. First published in 1889, this work covers Willoughbys hunts of African big game animals such as rhinos, African buffalo and wildebeest, impala, warthogs, zebra, hippos, and elephants. It should be noted that while this book is intended to cover Willoughbys big game hunts, it does contain instances of his encounters with African slave drivers.



This impressive first edition includes numerous engravings – views of various animals as well as weapons and landscapes. Includes one large folding map.
