First Published in 2005. This largely unknown travel book, written by a sporting and hunting enthusiast in 1896, recalls his journey with his wife and two dachshunds in what was then a largely unknown part of Europe. Not even Thomas Cook had conducted tours east of Trieste and our two travellers were exploring territory which was actually less well known to the Victorian traveller at the time than Egypt or Brazil. The author was an English gentleman, keen sportsman and traveller.
