A Young Man's Astounding Adventures in 19th Century Equatoral Africa

Here is the stuff legends - the true story of the life of Trader Horn, a tale of thrills and danger, wild beasts, serpents, and savages. Down on his luck in his old age, Trader Horn recounts his wild youth as an ivory trader in Central Africa: journeying into jungles teeming with buffalo, gorillas, and man-eating leopards; liberating an Isorga princess from captivity, and then marrying her off to his best friend after the toss of a coin; freeing slaves; and meeting Cecil Rhodes, founder of Rhodesia. As John Glasworthy writes in his foreword, here's a story "that will tickle the appetite of the most jaded."
