Major Harris's Sports And Adventures In Africa (1843) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781167011535)

Major Harris's Sports and Adventures in Africa is a memoir written by William Cornwallis Harris, a British military officer and big game hunter, detailing his expeditions in Africa during the early 19th century. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Harris's hunting expeditions in the interior of Africa, where he hunted elephants, lions, and other big game animals. The second part of the book describes Harris's travels along the coast of Africa, where he encountered various tribes and witnessed their customs and traditions. Throughout the book, Harris provides vivid descriptions of the African landscape, its wildlife, and the people he encountered, as well as his own experiences and adventures. The book is considered a classic of African exploration literature and provides valuable insight into the early days of colonialism in Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
