The Land of the Lion; or, Adventures among the wild animals of Africa. With ... illustrations

1876 · Seeley & Co. · 32 pictures

A Victorian hunting-and-travel narrative about African wildlife, published in London by Seeley & Co. in 1876 for general and young readers. Wood-engraved plates show lions on rocky ground, a crocodile seizing an antelope, a charging elephant and a pair of leopards, with dense hatched skies and foliage — useful for animal silhouettes, textured landscape backgrounds and captioned vignettes.
