Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A Narrative of a Professional Hunter's Experiences in Africa. Volume Twenty-Three in Safari Press's Classics in African Hunting Series. 409 pages. 100 color and 20 black & white photos. 8.5" x 112". #497 OF A LIMITED FIRST EDITION OF ONLY 1000 COPIES, HAND NUMBERED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. BOUND IN RED CLOTH AND IN A GREEN CLOTH COVERED SLIPCASE. Terry Irwin is no average professional hunter - that would be like saying Walter Bell shot a few elephants. In his fascinating memoirs, Irwin describes his early years as a schoolboy hunting in Botswana and Bechuanaland, his time as a prospector, and later, his employment by the Tanzania Game Department as an elephant-control officer. Although he prefers to keep his total elephant bag to himself, Irwin's feats are well known: walking thousands of miles on foot on safaris across remote parts of Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Kenya; hunting "problem lions, and leopards as well as elephants; and creating his own safari company, Kiburuzo Safaris. Irwin also includes interesting details: like the time when one of his clients took four years to bag a 100-pound elephant, and then ended up with two. Finally, Irwin shares his move to the Sudan after Tanzania closed its doors to hunting, and his subsequent creation of another successful safari company in South Africa. This book contains some of the best-ever photos and stories of large East African Ivory. Excellent. Signed by Author. Seller Inventory # 6113
