SPORT IN THE EASTERN SUDAN; From Souakin to the Blue Nile
Rowland Ward. 1912 London, 285pp, fold-out pocket map. Very good copy, ex-lib markings inside, complete with map, label on spine removed years ago, but it shows. Item #000801
Author started his hunting trip in Port Sudan and went south as far as the junction of the Blue Nile and the Ethiopian border. Contains a chapter on the game animals in the Sudan east of the Nile. Also a chapter on shooting large cats over bait. Otherwise; elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, leopard, ibex, kudu, roan, waterbuck, hartebeest, etc... This book is written in diary form and unfortunately the author did not elaborate to try and create a narrative. Yet, somehow scarce, probably because it is a Rowland Ward publication.
