Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In 1898 John H. Patterson arrived in East Africa with a mission to build a railway bridge over the Tsavo River. Over the course of several weeks Patterson and his mostly Indian workforce were systematically hunted by two man-eating lions . In all, 100 workers were killed, and the entire bridge-building project was delayed. As well as being stalked by lions, Patterson had to guard his back against his own increasingly hostile and mutinous workers as he set out to track and kill the man-eaters. Patterson's account of the lions' reign of terror and his own attempts to kill them is the stuff of great adventure. Consider this description of the aftermath of an attack by the lions: .".we at once set out to follow the brutes, Mr. Dalgairns feeling confident that he had wounded one of them, as there was a trail on the sand like that of the toes of a broken limb. we saw in the gloom what we at first took to be a lion cub; closer inspection, however, showed it to be the remains of the unfortunate coolie, which the man-eaters had evidently abandoned at our approach. The legs, one arm and half the body had been eaten, and it was the stiff fingers of the other arm trailing along the sand which had left the marks we had taken to be the trail of a wounded lion." This classic tale of death, courage, and terror in the African bush is still a page-turner, even after all these years. Originally published in 1907, this book records the harrowing true story of what really happened at Tsavo in 1898. If you are interested in the Tsavo Maneaters, this book is a must read! One of the first works on the subject of man-eating lions by someone with first-hand experience, it details a series of attacks on the Indian workers building the Mombasa to Uganda railway in 1898-1899. It was Patterson's task to rid the project of some man-eaters who had decimated the missing, but the discovery of the bodies soon dispelled that notion. Over the next few months, the lions had their pick of the workers along the railway line, and various traps and vigils all failed to work, until one of the lions was shot by Patterson, who had waited all night at the top of a 12 feet-high structure of sticks for the opportunity. The second male was shot soon after, but between them these two lions had accounted for over 100 workers and natives, "of whom no official record was kept." After killing the infamous lions, Colonel Patterson had their skins made into rugs and they resided in his home in England after his return from East Africa. In 1907, he wrote "The Man Eaters of Tsavo," which was a hit, and is considered today to be a literary classic. It is still to this day the most extraordinary account of man-eating animals ever recorded! Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Book
(Paperback, 2004). (1907) 2004 reprint. 8vo paperback with flaps (139 x 214mm). Ppxxii,346. B/w photographs, map. Small remainder mark to bottom edge, slight use but a very good paperback. A classic of lion hunting in British East Africa. Patterson was appointed by the Foreign Office to supervise the construction of the Uganda Railway, connecting that colony and the Kenyan interior with the coast at Mombasa. The project was held up for some time by lions attacking and killing numerous employees of the company. This book largely consists of the author's account of dealing with the lions. The narrative includes much of interest on the construction of the railway itself, and numerous interesting observations of the country and its peoples. The Foreword is by F.C. Selous. .
