THESIGER, Sir Wilfred Patrick. My Kenya Days. London: HarperCollinsPublishing. [1994].
8vo. Original black cloth lettered in gilt on spine, light-brown endpapers, dustwrapper retaining price; pp. xiv, 224; map and photographic illustrations after Thesiger, some full- or double-page; dustwrapper very slightly creased at edges, with short tear on lower panel, and slightly faded on part of spine, extremities very lightly bumped, very light marginal marks on pp.188-189, otherwise a very good copy.
First edition. Signed on the title-page 'Wilfred Thesiger'. An autobiographical account of Thesiger's thirty years in Kenya, where he settled in the latter part of his life, which complements Thesiger's books on the earlier years of his life: 'When he first came to Kenya in 1960, Thesiger made a series of long journeys on foot with camels to Lake Turkana, Marsabit and other remote areas, drawn by the lure of what was formerly Kenya's Northern Frontier District, its varied wildlife and distinctive, nomadic tribes. In Tanzania, he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and traversed the Maasai country with donkeys. Later, as an Honorary Game Warden, he led anti-poaching patrols in Kenya. […] My Kenya Days offers fresh insights into Thesiger's motivations and enigmatic personality. His descriptions of Kenya's northern tribes are picturesque, vivid and authoritative: Rendille warriors dancing by moonlight; Turkana in pursuit of buffalo; and a closely observed account of Samburu moran during their initiation ceremonies' (dustwrapper).
