It is a fascinating account of several months spent on African safari, and is highly recommended for those with an interest in accounts African wilderness experiences. Although mostly a chronicle of a trophy hunting trip, White s descriptions of the relationships and interactions between the natives and the visitors are truly enlightening, and well worth a read.
