Subject: Exploration of Africa
Subject: Exploration of Africa
Excellent history lesson on the exploration of Africa. Explains the obstacles he had to overcome to survive his time hunting in Africa. One must remember it is all out hunting of animals in Africa and if unable to understand the period in which it was written don't read. You will learn how the natives as well as hunters barely survive during starvation caused by famines, no water, fevers, tribal fighting as well as the dangerous animals he hunted.
