(Czech: An Annotated Bibliography of African Big Game Hunting Books, 1785-1999, p. 199) "Originally published in Stockholm in 1899, this work chronicles Möller's adventures in southern Africa with particular note of the indigenous peoples he visited. Of sporting interest are sections on hunting duiker, wildebeest, impala, lion, zebra and elephant (the latter unsuccessfully) in the regions of the Kakolavar and Kunene rivers." - Kenneth Czech.
