 HUNTING THE ELEPHANT IN AFRICA 



AND OTHER RECOLLECTIONS OF THIRTEEN 

 YEARS' WANDERINGS 



Fll 



BY CAPTAIN C. H. STIGAND 



With Introduction by THEODORE ROOSEVELT. 



Illustrated. 8vo. los. 6d. net. 



FIELD. "One of the most fascinating books of its kind that I have read 

 for years. In the first place Captain Stigand has done and seen a great many 

 things, and in the second, he has the secret of being able to tell the story after- 

 wards. ... A book full of adventure delightfully told, of humour, incident, and 

 ' tips.' " 



DAIL Y NEWS. " Chockfull of good things. Elephant hunting is only a 

 part of it : there is also lion, rhino, ostrich, buffalo, bongo, pongo, bantu, and 

 butterfly. . . . From beginning to end this is a most fascinating volume." 



OUTLOOK. " Better hunting stories than these before us we have never 

 read. . . . The book, apart from its general interest, has a distinct practical 

 value, and should be read by all sportsmen who are contemplating a visit to any 

 of the big-game districts of Africa. . . . The book must be highly placed among 

 the best of its kind." 



SATURDAY REVIEW. "Captain Stigand has such very interesting and 

 true stories to tell of great game, and his notes on the native mind are so fresh, 

 that it is hard to put his book down once we have taken it up." 



THE ADVENTURES OF AN 

 ELEPHANT HUNTER 



BY JAMES SUTHERLAND 

 Illustrated. 8vo. 75. 6d. net. 



DAILY CHRONICLE. "The finest record of the pursuit of big game we 

 have had for many a long day. We shall not soon look upon its like again. " 



GLOBE. "A more thrilling collection of narrow escapes than that with which 

 Mr. Sutherland provides us we have never come across, and one's hair stands on 

 end at every second page. ... At every turn he is in imminent danger of his life, 

 and we marvel at his wonderful luck. Yet his story is so simply and modestly 

 told, that it compels belief." 



TIMES. "Mr. Sutherland's insight into the habits and customs of the 

 African wild elephant is very extensive, for he is a most acute observer as well as 

 a skilled woodsman. Some of his experiences are more extraordinary than others, 

 but all of them which he has thought worthy of publication are very exciting. His 

 thrilling descriptions are vivid and admirably terse. ... A most fascinating book,, 

 worthy to rank with the classics of Neumann and Selous." 



EVENING STANDARD. "Without fear of contradiction, we may say- 

 that he knows more about elephants than any man living."
