Book Description
Excerpt from A Sporting Trip Through Abyssinia: A Narrative of a Nine Months Journey From the Plains of the Hawash to the Snows of Simien, With a Description of the Game, From Elephant to Ibex, and Notes on the Manners and Customs of the Natives When I started from England in the month of October 1899, nothing was further from my thoughts than writing a book on Abyssinia. I intended to join a sporting expedition, whose goal was the newly discovered game-country round Lakes Rudolf and Stephanie. Circumstances altered my plans, with the result that after some weeks' stay at Adis Ababa, I found myself engaged, without a single white companion, on a journey through regions which no European foot had trod for generations. Having kept a careful record of the sport I enjoyed and the chief incidents of my wanderings, and brought back numerous photographs of the scenery, people, and game of the little-known districts through which I passed, I have thought that the narrative of my experiences, though containing no accounts of hairbreadth escapes or records of gigantic slaughter, might be sufficiently interesting to be published.
