- Hardcover
London & Melbourne: Hutchinson & Co., 1940. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 375 pages, indexed, illustrated. Possibly first British edition. Zebra patterned boards. The book is not quite sqaure, else a clean, unmarked and solid copy, which includes a gift inscriptrion to to Sir Ernest Edward "Weary" Dunlop, The book came with other titles signed by or dedicated to Weary Dunlop so it's genuine. There is also a beautiful bookplate belonging to a previous owner. "This book is an absolute treat. It is everything an adventure book should be: full of romantic, scary, challenging and awe-inspiring moments. Osa chronicles her life with her husband to explain how they went from two Midwestern kids to two daring world travelers in the early 20th century who braved cannibals, African chiefs, harsh elements, and every kind of scary animal known to man. Their goal was to capture everything they saw on film to preserve it for history. While today's environmentalists and animal right's activists may frown on their tactics or mores, Osa and Martin were quite enlightened for their time and had great pathos for the animals and people they met on their adventures. What makes this book so successful is Osa's breezy writing; she willingly pokes fun at herself and laughs at their mistakes and mishaps. Her tone lacks the braggadocio that can be found in other travel narratives; you can envision her eye-rolling every time a man "who knows better" states that she shouldn't go meet the cannibal chief because she's a "woman". I recommend this to anyone who wants to be transported to another time and place and have a great adventure." (Amy goodreads)
