Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of a Lion Hunt With Some of the Hunter´s Military, Adventures During the War My brother Arnold, though born in Australia, was educated in England at Wixenford and Eton. The call of his native land drew him back to Queensland at the age of nineteen, but hardly had he returned, when the South African War broke out, and he promptly joined the Queensland Horse to serve throughout the greater part of that campaign as a trooper. In August 1914, as this narrative tells us, Arnold Wienholt was in Africa crippled by injuries suffered in his lion hunting expedition. Nevertheless he was quickly in harness again, serving till the end of the campaign in British East Africa in the Intelligence Corps, and winning the D.S.O., and M.C. with bar.
