" There is not space in these columns to give illustrative extracts of Mr. Selous's 

 exciting adventures so graphically, because so simply and modestly, told, so the 

 statement must suffice that so many of ihem have never been gathered between the 

 covers of a single book. ... As a record of hunting adventures it is almost without 

 equal." — ■ Illustrated London News. 



" Author needs no introduction. . . . Will doubtless become the standard work 

 of reference. Excellent and numerous illustrations." — Field. 



" It is impossible even to indicate all the points of interest with which Mr. Selous 

 deals. Illustrations are both numerous and excellent." — Times. 



" Delightful book . . . and is produced in a style befitting the reputation of both 

 author and publisher." — Review of Reviews. 



"Genuine story of adventure told in straightforward fashion, full of dramatic 

 incidents and hairbreadth escapes, and made especially interesting by the fact that 

 its author was the pioneer of the expedition to Mashonaland." — Morning Post. 



" From cover to cover the book is crammed with most interesting information about 

 the people, the country, the habits of wild beasts, mining, shooting, and the rest."— 

 Vatiity Fair.
