Description
Sport on the Blue Nile. By Isaac Charles Johnson. —Mr. Johnson's story of his sporting adventures does not differ materially from other books of the kind. It has the merit of simplicity and directness. He does not take advantage of his having killed a rare antelope to give us a disquisition --he is content to tell us what he killed and how he lined it—he is legitimately proud of having bagged a record specimen of one kind of animal—how he got on with his guides, and generally how he fared. Includes successful hunting of elephant, lion, crocodile, antelope, water buffalo, leopard, water fowl, and much more!
