In this unique study, first published in 1893, the conservationist Frederic Courteney Selous documents his eleven-year expedition to record endangered wildlife in south-east Africa. Also recalling the region's culture and commerce, and hostile encounters with native peoples, he provides a diverse perspective on Africa in the late nineteenth century.
