Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This collection of African stories was originally published in
1910. It is the record of a delightful hunting trip to those
fascinating regions along the Equator illustrated with many
photographs and cartoons. This book will appeal to those with an
interest in the history of hunting and natural history. Many of the
earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before,
are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are
republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality,
modern editions, using the original artwork and text.

1917. Illustrated. Davis was an American journalist and novelist
who covered wars all over the world. His vivid accounts made him
one of the leading reporters of his day. The Lost Road begins:
During the war with Spain, Colton Lee came into the service as a
volunteer. For a young man, he always had taken life almost too
seriously, and when, after the campaign in Cuba, he elected to make
soldiering his profession, the seriousness with which he attacked
his new work surprised no one. Finding they had lost forever, his
former intimates were bored, but his colonel was enthusiastic, and
the men of his troop not only loved, but respected him. See other
titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
1896. After graduating from the newly built Purdue University, Ade
wrote for some newspapers in Lafayette before moving to Chicago
where he found work at The Morning News, which later became the
Chicago Record. He began publishing his own work in 1896, and kept
writing for the rest of his life. He was well known as a humorist
and for his tongue-in-cheek style of writing. Ade writes in the
Preface: This little book is not supposed to contain any new
information. It is made up of plain observations concerning people
who live just around the corner. If the reader will bear in mind
that only the people who live around the corner are discussed in
this volume, there will be no chance for painful misunderstandings.

1914. Ade, American humorist and dramatist, uses fables to deliver
his observations on various topics including urbanization,
education, sports, automobiles, salesmanship, the workingman's
world, the shopkeeper, relationships and the dreams of youth. His
view is that of a man who was born and raised in west Indiana farm
country just after the Civil War, and who became a big city
newspaper columnist, a successful playwright, world traveler and
national celebrity. Sprinkled throughout Ade's fables are
references to contemporary persons and events whose significance
might escape the modern reader.
