BY Lieut.-Col. J. H. Patterson, D.S.O.

WITH A FOREWORD BY FREDERICK COURTENEY SELOUS

PREFACE




It is with feelings of the greatest diffidence
that I place the following pages before the public;
but those of my friends who happen to have
heard of my rather unique experiences in the

I have no doubt that many of my readers,
who have perhaps never been very far away from
civilisation, will be inclined to think that some
of the incidents are exaggerated. I can only
assure them that I have toned down the facts
