Description

mak. Bibl. The Duckworth Discoverers Series aims to republish classic texts in their original form which are of interest today, tracing the adventures of bygone travel writers. An observant personal account of colonial life in South-Africa, (then) Rhodesia and Kenya in 1928. Like many of his contemporaries Sir Arthur Conan Doyle travelled extensively. This eloquent travelogue recreates in amusing detail the difficulties ordinary tourists encountered while travelling abroad, while at the same time giving a lucid picture of colonial life at the early part of the twentieth century.
