Roosevelt's African trip is a 1909 popular account of Theodore Roosevelt's hunting expedition from New York to Mombasa and into central Africa, written by Frederic William Unger and published in Philadelphia for a general reading public. Its illustrations are black-and-white wood engravings of hippos, buffalo, vultures, bats and hunters in dense bush, offering a designer vintage natural-history and adventure-print linework with strong dark masses against pale ground.
