New(old books) in the stable. Got a good deal on all of them.

Collecting books from the NA continent for me is new. Will get a few more to be represented of that continent.

Excellent stuff, but I had not heard of Chaudhuri or Radclyffe. I am re-reading Stigands "Hunting the Elephant in Africa" at the moment, unfortunately not in @rigbymauser's nice old edition, but the same Capstick-library edition as @Huntsmans Bane .

I have Sutherlands book in a Safari Press edition as well.

Most of the "hunting in the old days"-books I have are in Ebook-format. Not really the same thing, but a lot easier to read in bed. :-)

When it comes to old actual books, I managed to pick up Samuel W Bakers "Albert N'yanza" printed in 1867 along with Georg Schweinfurths "In the heart of Africa" (1896) at a local auction a month ago.
 
Terrific books all!!
