The Life and Lore of the Elephant
The Life and Lore of the Elephant
by Robert Delort

Review: This small soft cover book is filled with more diverse information about elephants than any book we've seen. Virtually every page is illustrated with photographs of paintings, drawings, statues, plus illustrations which inform on the many topics the book covers.

The book presents information about; origins, zoology, military uses, palace duty, history from Alexander through Charlemagne to Hannibal, the circus from Romans to Ringling, ivory trail, all in concise illustrated and documented form. This is an ideal book for any elephant lover to own.

Soft cover, 7h x 6w inches, 191 pages, color photographs.
