The Ivory Trail – T.V. Bulpin

Description

The Ivory Trail by T.V. Bulpin is a thrilling true-life adventure set in the untamed wilderness of early 20th-century Southern Africa. This classic tale recounts the extraordinary life of legendary hunter, poacher, and outlaw S.C. “Bvekenya” Barnard, a larger-than-life character who roamed the Limpopo River region and made Crook’s Corner his refuge from the law.

Told to Bulpin by Barnard himself, this riveting narrative captures a world of daring hunts, ivory smuggling, run-ins with colonial authorities, and survival in the unforgiving African bush. Bvekenya’s exploits blur the lines between villain and hero as he defies control, battles nature, and eventually emerges as an unlikely conservationist.

A must-read for fans of African adventure, history, and biography, The Ivory Trail brings to life one of Africa’s most colourful and controversial figures in vivid, captivating detail.
