About this Item

1923 London, 1st edn, 267pp, illus. MEMORIES., of all of Lyell's books, is a peculiar title in that it is part autobiography, part travel log, and part pungent commentary on the author's perceptions of the creatures--both man and beast--he had known in Africa. This book also has a chapter on India. There is plenty of African hunting in Zambia and Zimbabwe, then known as Central Africa. A very good minus copy with visible wear on binding. Dark green cloth, gilt letters on spine, blind stamped letters on cover. Seller Inventory # 001734

Store Description

World Wide Hunting Books, from the Publisher of Sports Afield magazine, sells fine antiquarian big-game hunting and exploration & hunting books on Asia, North America, Europe and Africa. World Wide Hunting Books? stock is mainly antiquarian first editions that are in above-average condition; we have the collector in mind when we buy our books. If you are looking for a rare first edition on elephant hunting or a book on an expedition after wild sheep in Asia that took place over a century ago, you will likely find it in our extensive stock. We have books on tiger, bear, wild sheep, elk, ibex, buffalo, rhino, elephant, and lion hunting. We also have early exploration and hunting accounts from North America, Asia, and Africa. If it is a book on big-game hunting and if it is out of print, it is likely we have handled the book in our thirty-five-plus years of being in this field. We maintain a detailed, proprietary database with seven thousand-plus entries with bibliographical notes that helps us keep track of the thousands of hunting books ever printed. We work with small collectors as well as huge university libraries. We are proud to have helped some of our customers create collections that contain more than one thousand books, but we are equally happy to provide you with that one special book you have always longed for or want to present as a gift.
