Tales of a Nomad: or Sport and Strife (1894) Charles Montague

Originally published in 1894, this early work is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. Comprising an entertaining collection of shooting and hunting experiences of the author across Africa and Borneo. A window onto a bygone age that is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the shelf of any hunting enthusiast or historian of the sport. Contents Include: A Ride for Dear Life; My Fife Buffaloes; My Three Sea-cows; Various; Flat Game and Small Game; The Storming of Secoceni?s; The Siege of Marabastadt; A Lucky Kill; My Big Tusker; A Take of Three Elephants. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
