Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sporting Trip Through Abyssinia: A Narrative of a Nine Months Journey From the Plains of the Hawash to the Snows of Simien, With a Description of the Game, From Elephant to Ibex, and Notes on the Manners and Customs of the Natives When I started from England in the month of October 1899, nothing was further from my thoughts than writing a book on Abyssinia. I intended to join a sporting expedition, whose goal was the newly discovered game-country round Lakes Rudolf and Stephanie. Circumstances altered my plans, with the result that after some weeks' stay at Adis Ababa, I found myself engaged, without a single white companion, on a journey through regions which no European foot had trod for generations. Having kept a careful record of the sport I enjoyed and the chief incidents of my wanderings, and brought back numerous photographs of the scenery, people, and game of the little-known districts through which I passed, I have thought that the narrative of my experiences, though containing no accounts of hairbreadth escapes or records of gigantic slaughter, might be sufficiently interesting to be published.

This book was released on 2015-12-23 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I present this book to the Public simply as an account of what I did and saw; and the impressions the different events and scenes made upon my mind. I have written it from notes and my daily Journal. The stories that are in it were told me, some by Natives, others by Europeans; either over the camp fire, or to while away the tedium of a long march, or the ennui of life on board ship. These tales must be taken as they are written; they amused me much at the time, and if they only interest my readers I shall be content. I hope to revisit Abyssinia, but under more favourable auspices; and trust that better luck may attend me. I have spelt the names of places as they are pronounced, having had them repeated over several times to me by our excellent interpreter, Peter Brou. Victoria Street. London. 1876.

Book Synopsis The empire of nature by : John M. MacKenzie
Download or read book The empire of nature written by John M. MacKenzie and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study assesses the significance of the hunting cult as a major element of the imperial experience in Africa and Asia. Through a study of the game laws and the beginnings of conservation in the 19th and early-20th centuries, the author demonstrates the racial inequalities which existed between Europeans and indigenous hunters. Africans were denied access to game, and the development of game reserves and national parks accelerated this process. Indigenous hunters in Africa and India were turned into "poachers" and only Europeans were permitted to hunt. In India, the hunting of animals became the chief recreation of military officers and civilian officials, a source of display and symbolic dominance of the environment. Imperial hunting fed the natural history craze of the day, and many hunters collected trophies and specimens for private and public collections as well as contributing to hunting literature. Adopting a radical approach to issues of conservation, this book links the hunting cult in Africa and India to the development of conservation, and consolidates widely-scattered material on the importance of hunting to the economics and nutrition of African societies.

Book Synopsis Militarism, Hunting, Imperialism by : J.A. Mangan
Download or read book Militarism, Hunting, Imperialism written by J.A. Mangan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late Victorian and Edwardian officer class viewed hunting and big game hunting in particular, as a sound preparation for imperial warfare. For the imperial officer in the making, the ‘blooding’ hunting ritual was a visible ‘hallmark’ of stirling martial masculinity. Sir Henry Newbolt, the period poet of subaltern self-sacrifice, typically considered hunting as essential for the creation of a ‘masculine sporting spirit’ necessary for the consolidation and extension of the empire. Hunting was seen as a manifestation of Darwinian masculinity that maintained a pre-ordained hierarchical order of superordinate and subordinate breeds. Militarism, Hunting, Imperialism examines these ideas under the following five sections: martial imperialism: the self-sacrificial subaltern ‘blooding’ the middle class martial male the imperial officer, hunting and war martial masculinity proclaimed and consolidated martial masculinity adapted and adjusted. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.
