Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Through Central Africa: From Coast to Coast As this book details a specific journey for a specific purpose, the plans for which were laid long in advance and carried out quite to the letter, barring some disappointments bound to occur in the furtherance of even the best laid plans, it is well to begin at the beginning; and, as it is also the personal story of the experiences and work of two men, it might be well to term them in advance, the Scribe and the Photographer. The Scribe had it in his mind during the year 1912, that as soon as he could arrange his private affairs, and get them into condition for a long absence, he would journey to East Africa in quest of game pictures, and being very unskilful with the camera - having developed little of the patience and none of the technique - he was most anxious to secure a companion who would supply his own defects. In the fall of 1912 the New York papers announced that Mr. Cherry Kearton, whose work in the field of natural history photography is known in America as well as in England, was in the city. "If I could only get hold of Cherry Kearton," said the Scribe to himself, "I would have the man I would like to go with."
