Gorongosa

Dear friends,
Mr. Pinto Soares (now a 93-years old retired Colonel living in Lisbon) managed the Gorongosa Game Reserve from 1948 to 1952 and offered recently to the Gorongosa National Park, among other relics, the official 1952-map of Gorongosa and also the book "Gorongosa, Grass and Game", dated of 1948, written by Mr. Basil Lecanides, a Greek national that lived in Beira (Mozambique) for many years.


The book is very interesting in many senses and describes in 15 chapters Mr. Lecanides travels and adventures, nearby and inside what was then the Gorongosa Game Reserve.


After the 15 chapters he wrote the following "Notes upon the Gorongoza Game Reserve" that I think are worthwhile to be shared.


Best regards,
Vasco Galante
