Excerpt from With Flash-Light and Rifle: Photographing by Flash-Light at Night the Wild Animal World of Equatorial Africa
In translating Dr. Schilling's work my endeavor has been to adhere as closely as possible to the original, in order to preserve the freshness and virility of the author's touch, and to show how quick his resources in positions of grave danger, and how his indomitable courage and ingenuity enabled him to overcome apparently insurmountable obstacles. I have taken the liberty of omitting certain portions of the narrative that were somewhat in the nature of repetitions, or of little interest to American readers, but I have preserved faithfully all that was vital and essential in the story of his marvellous adventures while studying the habits of the animals of the African wilderness.
