THE IVORY TRAIL

$13.00
THE IVORY TRAIL is an adventure romance by British writer, TALBOT MUNDY. It was published in 1919 by the BOBBS MERRILL COMPANY with illustrations by JOSEPH CLEMENT COLL. It was serialized in ADVENTURE magazine in early 1919 under the title On the Trail of Tipoo Tib. It received a largely positive reception but was quite different from his previous books in that it was set entirely in East Africa, amid Mundy’s old hunting grounds. The Ivory Trail is the story of four friends, soldiers-of-fortune, and their search for ivory across Portuguese, British and German East Africa in the year 1900. While in quarantine on Zanzibar for cholera, they get wind of a great treasure, a huge cache of ivory hidden away by the notorious Tipoo Tib, slave trader and ivory merchant, and lose no time going after the hoard. A movie serial version of The Ivory Trail was released under the name, Jungle Mystery, in 1932.
