OKAVANGO. By June Kay. Introduction by Gerald Durrell.
1962 1st edition. 8vo (142 x 215mm). Pp191. Colour frontispiece, b/w photographs, map end-papers. Black cloth, spine titled in yellow and gilt.
The stories of the travels of June Kay and her husband, sons and pets (including lions) in a war-time amphibious D.U.K.W., traversing the Chobe, a little-explored tributary of the Zambezi, before plunging in to the wilds of Ngamiland. "...in Okavango we realize that there is still a dark continent - full of the mystery of little-known regions such as the wilds of Bechuanaland, where crococdile eyes glow in hundreds in the swamps by night."
