EIGHTEEN YEARS IN UGANDA 

 AND EAST AFRICA. 



By the Right Rev. ALFRED R. TUCKER, D.D., LL.D., 



BISHOP OF UGANDA. 



With 60 Full-page Illustrations from the Author's Sketches, several of them 

 in Colour, and a Map. In Two Volumes. Demy 8vo. 305, net. 



This is a book of absorbing interest from various points of view, 

 religious, political and adventurous. It will appeal to the Churchman 

 and the philanthropist as a wonderful record of that missionary work, 

 of which Mr. Winston Churchill has recently said : 



' There is no spot under the British Flag, perhaps in the whole 

 world, where missionary enterprise can be pointed to with more 

 conviction and satisfaction as to its marvellous and beneficent 

 results than in the kingdom of Uganda.' 



It will interest the politician as a chapter of Empire-building, in 

 which the author himself has played no small part. Lastly, it will 

 delight all those who travel or who love reading about travel. The 

 Bishop describes his wanderings, mostly afoot, through nearly 22,000 

 miles of tropical Africa. He tells of the strange tribes among whom 

 he dwells, of the glories of the great lakes and the Mountains of the 

 Moon. He tells of them not only with the pen, but also with pencil 

 and brush, which he uses with masterly skill.

The author of this fascinating book is a well-known ornithologist, 

 as well as a mighty hunter and traveller. He takes us ' on safari ' 

 (i.e., on trek) through a new African region a creation of yesterday, 

 Imperially speaking, since British East Africa only sprang into 

 existence during the current decade, on the opening of the Uganda 

 Railway. ' The new Colony,' he says, * six times greater in area 

 than the Mother Island, is an Imperial asset of as yet unmeasured 

 possibilities, consisting, to-day, largely of virgin hunting grounds, un- 

 surpassed on earth for the variety of their wild fauna, yet all but un- 

 known save to a handful of pioneers and big-game hunters.' Much 

 knowledge, however, can be acquired through the pages and pictures 

 of this book, describing, as it does, the vast tropical forests, with 

 their savage inhabitants and teeming animal life. The numerous 

 illustrations of African big game, owing to the expert knowledge of 

 both author and artist, are probably the most accurate that have ever 

 appeared.
