In Africa: Hunting Adventures in the Big Game Country
John Tinney McCutcheon
A newspaper cartoonist traded his desk for a rifle and the African bush. John McCutcheon recounts his hunting adventures in the big game country, sketching the animals, camps, and characters he met along the safari trail. Lively, good-humored travel and hunting writing, illustrated by the author himself. For the reader who wants Africa through fresh and witty eyes. Set out on safari.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
