Adventures Of Louis De Rougemont

The Adventures Of Louis De Rougemont is a memoir written by Louis De Rougemont, a Swiss adventurer who claimed to have lived among the Aborigines in Australia for over thirty years. The book details his incredible adventures, including being shipwrecked, fighting off giant octopuses, and living with a tribe of Aborigines. However, De Rougemont's claims were later disputed, and it was suggested that he had fabricated many of his stories. Despite this controversy, the book remains a fascinating account of adventure and survival in the late 19th century.So we started off into the unknown, with no more provision or equipment than if we were going for a stroll of a mile or so. Yamba carried her yam-stick and basket, and I had my usual weapons- -tomahawk and stiletto in my belt, and bow and arrows in my hand. I never dreamed when we started that to strike due south would take us into the unexplored heart of the continent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
