THE BEAUTY AND SAVAGERY of Africa are typified in this picture of a lazing cheetah. The picture is one of a hundred magnificent studies of animals and birds in “Africa; a Natural History,” published by Hamish Hamilton. The pictures and subject matter in a large, sumptuous volume deal also with the forests, the deserts, the mountains, the great rifts, the volcanoes, the lakes, the rivers, the plants and trees, and the fantastic geological formations in the continent. The descriptive letterpress is by Leslie Brown, formerly Chief Agriculturist, Kenya, and the pictures, selected from the work of scores of photographers, brilliantly exhibit Africa’s beauty and immense variety.
