Publisher's Synopsis

Notes on Sport and Travel is a collection of essays written by George Henry Kingsley, a British writer, explorer, and naturalist, and published in 1900. The book is a compilation of Kingsley's observations and experiences during his travels around the world, particularly in Africa and South America, where he engaged in hunting and exploration.The book is divided into two parts: the first part deals with Kingsley's experiences in Africa, where he hunted big game, explored the continent's rivers and mountains, and observed the customs and cultures of the African people. The second part of the book covers Kingsley's travels in South America, where he explored the Amazon River, hunted jaguars and other exotic animals, and studied the flora and fauna of the region.Throughout the book, Kingsley provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, wildlife, and people he encountered on his travels. He also offers insights into the challenges and dangers of exploring remote and uncharted territories. Kingsley's writing is characterized by a sense of adventure and a deep appreciation for the natural world.Notes on Sport and Travel is a valuable historical document that provides a glimpse into the world of exploration and adventure in the late 19th century. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in travel, adventure, or natural history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
