#6150- ELEPHANT HUNTERS OF THE LADO- Foran, Robert- The Lado Enclave always was a wild, lawless area but became even more so after the death of King Leopold of Belgium. Because of a strange agreement between the British and Belgian colonial authorities, this remote corner of Africa was for a time actually a no-man’s land without law or rules. Adventurers, ivory hunters, fortune seekers, and others flocked to the Lado Enclave to take advantage of the ivory and the lack of authority. Despite the fame and notoriety of the area, only very few people who witnessed the greatest elephant-hunting era of all time actually wrote about it. Quite likely it was so because few did much to be proud of, fewer still made any money at it, and quite a few did not return alive. Robert Foran was an exception.

As the guns covered in The Encylopedia get older, the information becomes even more valuable; what little other info was available has long since gone out of print, original manuals have been lost and today's gunsmith might have to pass up repair or restoration work on "Dad's favorite", without The Encylopedia.
