Early Days In East Africa

Early Days In East Africa by Frederick J Jackson (1930). In this classic book about British East Africa Sir Jackson vividly describes his experiences there - hunting parties, the local tribes and their customs, racial relations and more. An interesting account of this part of Africa at the beginning of the 20th century. Jackson met quite a few well-known hunters of the era, including Count Teleki, Sir John Willoughby, Buffalo Jones, William Rainsford and others. Of interest are his comments regarding Teddy Roosevelt, whom Jackson liked but described his over-expenditure of ammunition on game. There is also a chapter on professional hunters in general.
