Even though I live close to Copenhagen I rarely go there..but here last saturday I did go to visit some books shops(like I used to before the internet). I was lucky to find a nice 1st London Edition from Blixens Àfrican Hunter`.. The last image is with Eva Dickson whom he married. Unfortunately she passes away on a journey in the Iraq in 1938. Blix returns to Sweden that year to never again return to Africa. DRSS: HQ Scandinavia. Chapters in Sweden & Norway | ||

Nice find! I read his African Letters book earlier this year and have started reading African Hunter. (the Peter Capstick library version) I would have thought you'd be more likely to find the original 1936 Swedish version (Nyama) than the 1st English edition, but you never know what you'll find in a bookstore.

Awesome. And great to see a pic of Charles Heyers place. They handled so many Safari rifles it’s crazy. Neat stuff. | |||

LHeym, It is a great book as well as all the others associated with it by Beryl Markham, Denis Fynch-Hatton, + too many others to write the names of, although Papa puts in his presence there as well. A lot of good reading there. Karin even said, years after their divorce that she would still go on a safari with Bror, it was that much of an experience. Never mistake motion for action. | |||

That rifle with the dead lion sure looks like a Mannlicher-Shoenauer 1903 in 6.5X 56; m favorite calibre. Never mistake motion for action. | |||

Sorry, 6.5X 54. These bifocals suck. Never mistake motion for action. | |||
