Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. frontis (portrait), illustrations, maps on endpaper, 127p. Original green cloth; lettered and decorated in red on front cover. 25 cm. No Jacket (as published?). INSCRIBED (To my old friend Harry Roth with my every good wish Nov 1936") by Silbermann beneath his photo (frontis). Copy 85 of the edition limited to 500 numbered copies. The most interesting part of this book is probably his Big Game hunting and other experiences in Kenya described at pages 29-89. The rest of the book describes his trip, almost entirely by airplane, from London to Egypt and then from place to place heading south to South Africa (where Silbermann grew up). South Africa occupies pages 95-105 after which he returned north in several hops to Egypt and on to London.
