An Interesting Recent Book
A COLONY IN
THE MAKING
Or SPORT AND PROFIT IN BRITISH EAST AFRICA.
By Lord Cranworth. With Map and Illustrations. 8vo. 12S. net.
Daily Telegraph. — " It is a valuable and interesting work, at once descriptive and practical, that Lord Cranworth has written ; valuable especially to those looking out for a fieia in which to utilise their energies and their capital, to those who w'ould understand local conditions of different parts of the Empire, and to those who would have first-hand information about a famous big game country, and deeply interesting to all readers who can enjoy well-informed and well-presented accounts of life in distant places. Lady Cranworth contributes a chapter of helpful ' Hints for a Woman in British East Africa,' and the volume has many photographs which accentuate the strong appeal of the text."
Times. — " Lord Cranworth gives a most excellent account of the progress of the colony down to the end of 191 1, and it is safe to say that when the history of the last decade in East Africa comes to be written this book is one upon which the historian will considerably depend."
Globe.— "The book is one which will attract considerable attention. If it will not supersede Sir Charles Elliott's classic work on East Africa, it is worthy at least a place beside it on the shelf of the colonist, sportsman, and colonial student, to all of whom different chapters will make an appeal."
Morning Post.—" Singularly complete and well-informed account. . . . Lord Cranworth sees things in the proper perspective, though his detailed account of the opportunities for shooting and fishing, to say nothing of cricket ^ and other more artificial diversions, should satisfy the visiting sportsman, yet the chief value of his book consists in its wealth of accurate information regarding what are destined to be the staple industries of the country."
