There will be 4 dealers exhibiting a variety of collectables, from First Editions; Rare Books; Africana; Antique Maps; to Share Certificates. 

At 11:00 Jono Waters will be talking on Frederick Courtney Selous, adventurer, hunter and author who died almost 100 years ago while serving in the East Africa campaign. Waters takes a look at the life of this remarkable man, focusing on the events leading up to his death in active service on January 4, 1917. Mention is also made of an equally inspiring man, the German General Paul von Lettow Vorbeck, who remained undefeated until the actual end of World War I in northern Zambia on November 25, 1918.

All the best - James
