Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 8: October-November, 1950
However, life went pleasantly along for the next few days. I even managed to do a bit of business on the side. I was standing outside the gate of the fort one evening when an Arab came by with a pair of the most beautiful ele phant tusks I have ever seen. They were seven feet long if they were an inch. I stopped him and tried to haggle. He didn't understand me and. I don't know Arabic so it was tough going until the guard at the gate offered to interpret. I bought the tusks for two thousand francs, a very slick business deal if I do say it.
