jens poulsenBaden-Powell book..
A rare book has been added. Its a title I have been searching for for some years.
Lord Baden Powell died in 1941 In Nyeri, Kenya.
When Jim Corbett later moved to Kenya from India he lived for some time in BPs house. They are both buried in the same cemetary in Nyeri.

jens poulsenThanks Normann.
Bade-Powell like most British officers also did some hunting. Indeed...he is some charactor that deserves to be mentioned.
I have a book called "Pigsticking"(1924) from his time in India. Also his book "Indian memories"(1915) is in my collection.

NormanConquestJens you have a very fine collection sounds like what my conception of Heaven is, endless aisles of books + an eternity to enjoy them.
