The Ivory Ball is a novel written by Chauncey C. Hotchkiss and originally published in 1920. The story is set in the early 1900s and follows the adventures of the protagonist, a young man named John Rawnley, who inherits a valuable ivory ball from his grandfather. The ball is said to be cursed and brings bad luck to anyone who possesses it. John becomes obsessed with the ivory ball and decides to take it on a journey to Africa, where he hopes to find more of the precious material. Along the way, he encounters a variety of characters, including a beautiful woman named Ethel and a group of ruthless ivory traders. As John continues on his quest, he begins to realize the true nature of the ivory trade and the devastating impact it has on African wildlife. He also discovers that the curse of the ivory ball is not just a superstition, but a very real danger that threatens his life and the lives of those around him. The Ivory Ball is a thrilling adventure story that combines elements of romance, mystery, and suspense. It also raises important questions about the ethics of the ivory trade and the treatment of African wildlife.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
