Description

The "dense jungles" become beautiful wooded plains, peopled by vast herds of "wild animals" almost as tame as domestic cattle. The great veld region of East Africa takes on an aspect so different from that which is generally presented that we hardly recognize it. Where we are supposed to roast directly under the equator, we are in reality in a land of perpetual snow and ice, as truly Arctic as the North Pole.  Read online at archive.org.
