| 520 | _a"An Ivory Trader in North Kenia" by A. Arkell-Hardwick is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative documents an expedition through various regions of East Equatorial Africa, focusing on the quest for ivory and interactions with the Kikuyu, Rendili, and Burkeneji tribes. The author, along with companions including the notable “El Hakim,” shares his experiences, challenges, and encounters while detailing the geography and cultures of the area. The opening of the expedition sets the stage for the journey, detailing preparations such as the selection of porters and the gathering of supplies. Arkell-Hardwick introduces the various tribes that will be involved, along with a cast of colorful characters who will accompany him. The preparations unfold against a backdrop of ominous warnings about potential hostilities from local tribes, showcasing the inherent dangers of such treks during that period. The author grapples with logistical issues while humorously reflecting on the eccentricities of his porters, establishing a foundation for the adventures that will follow in the subsequent chapters.
