A history of Safari.

Gentlemen,

If you go here :- (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

You can see a magnificent documentary of Safari in British East Africa introduced by the African born actor Richard E. Grant.

It covers the early days of Big Game Hunting with film snippets of Teddy Roosevelt and the American born 'Bwana' Cotter, also Bror Von Blixen and the Englishman Denys Finch Hatton as well as Lord Delamere, who despite his title was a rather impoverished gentleman in Africa for many years, before he made his 'pile' 

This documentary is 90 minutes long and will only be available to view for a very few days. This site shows repeats of the British BBC programmes for a few days after they were actually aired, so if 'We Brits' missed them, we could see it on our computers.

A fascinating documentary that may never be available on US TV stations. Don't delay, watch it today, a fascinating piece of history. You will need 'Broadband' to view this film.

Enjoy, 

Harry.

Sorry Guys,

There was nothing on the BBC website to indicate that it was restricted (possibly just to the UK) and not available in the USA. Once more my apologies.  Undecided
