245 pgs, 8vo. First issue of a very long-term resident who describes the people, the country, and his life that meaningfully intertwined with the flora, fauna, and especially the people of Africa, from his first visit in 1896 thru longer periods there in later days. Very well written, in a way that brings the events to life for readers, and shows how a European could prefer the wonders of this continent to the wars of his own land, and live as a neighbor to the natives, without exploiting them, for treasure, skins, or profit. One of the best and most intimate books on the pre-colonization period in Africa. Very good condition no dust jacket, as issued. Tight binding, no flaws or wear, or markings.

Descripción de la librería

The "Old Book Surfer" store was started in 2009 near downtown Schenectady N.Y., in the "Bellevue" neighborhood first settled by General Electric and Alco Locomotive workers who built a small canal town into a mighty engine of U.S. industry. In 2014 we relocated to our present larger quarters in Cambridge, NY. Our literary and general interest bookstore also offers Recorded Music on vinyl to a collector clientele. We try to describe every internet item -- book or record -- as clearly as possible, just as if you were viewing it personally in the shop. With 20 years of collecting experience in our fields, we welcome you as either an on-line or in-store visitor! Our current business hours are Wed.-Sun., from 1-6pm, eastern time.
