With vivid descriptions of the African landscape and wildlife, Hunting The Lions is a gripping tale of adventure and survival that will keep readers on the edge of their seats from beginning to end.It has happened often that the poor animal's legs do their duty so badly that he falls and exposes his rider to be trodden into a mummy; or losing his presence of mind, the rider may allow the horse to dash under a tree, and crack his cranium against a branch. As one charge of an elephant has often been enough to make embryo hunters bid a final adieu to the chase, incipient Nimrods would do well to try their nerves by standing on railways till the engines are within a few yards of them, before going to Africa!""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
