The second expedition was into the region called Petit Sahara, and the author was for a time the guest of the Khalifa of Roumania, Belcassem Ben Toumy by name, and a most genial and agreeable personage.” (N. Y. Times.)


“Where he allowed his own mother-wit to guide him, the author’s versions of what he saw are admirably shrewd and generally accurate. He writes as a sportsman, and his information under this head is of a useful and practical sort.”
