Whether you are interested in old classics or modern ones, whether you want to read about Tanganyika or Tanzania, Rhodesia or Zimbabwe, Northern Rhodesia or Zambia, there are literally hundreds of books described to whet your big game hunting reading appetite. This updated and vastly expanded version of Ken's first book - nearly DOUBLE the number of entries - includes books by hunters, pioneers, explorers and settlers. From the first stalwart individuals who ventured to Africa, to the more recent groups of intrepid sportsmen who trod game paths across the dark continent, virtually all who have recounted their efforts in book form (prior to 2000) are represented here. This is a book that will be considered essential for collectors, dealers, historians and armchair safari enthusiasts. Only 500 copies printed.
