their faults are minimized. There are
no feuds, no killings and the proceeds

the straining for theatrical effect and

and Company. It is in substance a
diary that tells chiefly about the In
cidents of travel in the African wilder
ness. and about tho hunting with gun
and camera of the various unlucky
wild beasts. lions and the rest, that
the author was after. He kept an eye
on what people he met, too. and those
portions Of the diary Will prove most
enjoyable 70 readers who are not
carried away by sporting ideals. He
sprinkes his English with the many
technical terms that mark the eenu-
ineness Of African travel. The pictures
are good, there IL an adequate map,
also directions for other travellers.
