Excerpt from The Land of the Lion
OF books on African sport and travel truly there is no end. What excuse then, can I make for adding another to their number? Frankly, my first reason was the pleasure the writing of these notes afforded me.
My memory has never been a good one, and after years of somewhat hard work, I find, alas! It is less and less serviceable. If I wish to retain vivid impressions myself of what seems worth remembering, or if I wish to convey the result of my impressions to others, I find it necessary to make copious notes at the time. In this way I fell into the habit of writing down as I went along, some account of what I saw, and sometimes of what I heard.
Then you cannot travel every day and all day, in Africa. There are long hot afternoons to be passed, and occasionally long wet days to be wiled away, and Since it is not always easy to carry many books, writing of some sort seems the natural thing to do.
