Adventures In The African Jungle Hunting Pigmies is a book written by William Edgar Geil and published in 1917. The book is a first-hand account of Geil's expedition to the African jungle, where he hunted pygmies. The book is divided into several chapters, each detailing a different aspect of Geil's journey.Geil describes the African jungle as a dangerous and unpredictable place, full of wild animals and treacherous terrain. He recounts his encounters with elephants, lions, and other predators, as well as the challenges of navigating through dense forests and crossing treacherous rivers.The main focus of the book, however, is Geil's hunt for pygmies. He describes the pygmies as a mysterious and elusive people, who live deep in the jungle and have their own unique culture and traditions. Geil and his team set out to track down the pygmies and capture them, in order to study their way of life and bring them back to civilization.Throughout the book, Geil also reflects on the moral implications of his expedition, and the impact that it could have on the pygmies and their way of life. He grapples with questions of cultural imperialism and the ethics of hunting and capturing other human beings.Overall, Adventures In The African Jungle Hunting Pigmies is a fascinating and controversial account of one man's journey into the heart of the African jungle, and his encounter with one of the world's most mysterious and misunderstood cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
