"Trader Horn spent his youth as an ivory trader in Central Africa. This is the true story of his life--thrills, adventure and danger at every turn. He writes about his journeys into jungles teaming with buffalo, gorillas, man-eating leopards, serpents and savages. Along the way, he frees slaves, meets Cecil Rhodes (founder of Rhodesia) and liberates a princess from captivity.
This book has one of the earliest descriptions of "Mokele-mbembe"--a large mythical (so far) creature (showing 500 of 1859 characters). |
