billrquimbyWow! Are they yours? I have the Stanleys and Bakers, and reprints of some of the others, but most of these look like firsts. I'm envious! Thanks for sharing.

Philip A.Thanks... Yes, these are on my shelves. Mostly first or early editions.
As my veranda overlooks Lake Victoria, several of these books can look back at their authors' tracks...
"The Wanderings of an Elephant Hunter" went to Karamoja, it's a special feeling to read the pages while in front of you are the very places and the same people you are reading about!

ScriptusDamn. As I was looking at the photos, I realised that the screen was taking on a green hue. Then it dawned on me, it was a reflection from my face.

ScriptusStick around, when Philip shuffles off, you might get them at a church sale. That is where a number of mine have been found.
