Great Birthday

A.Sharpe · Nov 18, 2013

My wife surprised me with a cased set of W.D.M. Bell books. Bell of Africa, Wonderings of an Elephant Hunter and Karamojo Safari. This made for a great birthday, I have wanted these books for some time. She is one fantastic Lady .... I am so excited about these books I had to tell somebody. You guys are the only people I know who will appreciate how special this set is.

Bell shoots 1,006 if I remember right. Oh shoot, I ruined the books for you!

You will really enjoy the books. If you can pull up an early 1900's Uganda, Kenya, Sudan map on the computer it might give you a better appreciation for his locations as your reading them. (It makes the books mean more to me anyway) Enjoy.

Thank-you Wheels, I will do that. I know what you mean. I told my grand-daughter that I had been to Rhodesia, about an hour later she came back and informed me that it wasn't on the globe so I had to give her a quick history lesson. I actually was impressed that she went to the globe and not the computer that lives in the palm of her hand.(Smart Phone)

You are welcome. She will always be Rhodesia to me. You have a beautiful land.

I have been to Rhodesia.....a wonderful place.

The only Zimbabwe I have been to is the "Great Zimbabwe" down by Ft. Victoria......oh yea, there is no Ft. Victoria anymore either.:doh2:
