This review is from: African Game Trails: The Classic Big Game Safari (Paperback)
Wonderful read. This book is a diary of a year long African safari undertaken by "Teddy" Roosevelt and his teenage son Kermit. The purpose was to collect specimens for museums and the Smithsonian Inst. in Washington D.C. The language and thoughts of that era are interesting and some of the observations would not be tolerated today, but that was 100 years ago thd different thoughts prevailed. The difficult conditions, interesting characters and the stories of human indurance are wonderful. People were certainly used to great physical hardship and were certainly tougher than most anyone I know today. One of my favorite books!
