"Green Hills of Africa" is Hemingway's second work of nonfiction. This book is an account of a month on safari he and his wife took in East Africa during December 1933. It is divided into four parts: "Pursuit and Conversation", "Pursuit Remembered", "Pursuit and Failure", and "Pursuit as Happiness", each playing a vital role in the story.
