Description
Excerpt from The Unknown Horn of Africa: An Exploration From Berbera to the Leopard River
I have just returned; and I fear, from the constant interruptions inseparable from such journeys, some of it may have been too hastily written.
To Mrs. Gordon Hake I owe my special thanks for the great care and skill she has dis played in the narrative illustrations. These, after frequent consultations between Mrs. Gor don Hake and ourselves, were composed from the numerous photographs of natives and native scenery taken on the spot by my brother and Aylmer, and for accuracy of detail and dramatic force, leave, I think, nothing to be desired. Indeed, they have more than justified the high Opinion I hold of her talents as a faithful and realistic artist.
