Mr. Edward Arnold's List of New Books 
EIGHTEEN YEARS IN UGANDA 
AND EAST AFRICA. 
By the Right Rev. ALFRED R. TUCKER, D.D., LL.D., 
Bishop of Uganda. 
With over 50 Full-page Illustrations from the Author's Sketches , several 
of them in Colour. In Two Volumes . Demy Svo. 30s, 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 2,000 
miles of tropical Africa. Fie 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.
