Description

In this well-written book we find ourselves in Zululand, amid the beautiful scenery of South Africa. Hendricks makes his living by hunting, and trading the skins and other products. It is a dangerous way of earning money, and we are with him on one of his trips. There are dangers from animals, lack of water, snakes, and, of course, the natives. Some of the latter are friendly, and these are sympathetically depicted in the story. There were quite a few type-setting errors, mainly in wrong, missing, or superfluous quote signs. We think we have got this right in this version of the book. It makes a good audiobook, of about ten hours' duration.
