Shipping Info

Description

The
Imminent Rains
A Visit Among The
Last Pioneers Of Africa

by
John Hylan Heminway, Jr.

Published by Little Brown and Company, copyright Boston MA 1968, stated First Edition. Having 169 pages, illustrated with drawings by Hilary Heminway. Bound in cloth 6.5 by 9.25 inch hard covers, still in original dust jacket showing minor wear mainly along edges, otherwise binding still tight and strong, contents clean, and generally in good or better condition.

(text taken from dust jacket...)

In 1967 John Heminway and a young companion traveled by Land Rover throughout much of Africa to talk with the few remaining pioneers who have made their lives there and who are irrevocably tied to it. His book is a testament to the ineffable appeal of the continent with its muted thrills and constant sensuality.

THE IMMINENT RAINS portrays some of nature's last gentlemen, the dignified men of the bush - pioneer settlers who in their salty, individual ways have found Africa a land of immense personal value. A book of poetic simplicity and colorful dialogue, THE IMMINENT RAINS is fascinating to read and will endure as one of the most inspiring human documents to come out of Africa.
