Contact seller4-star seller1951 London, 445pp, illus, end-paper map. James Mellon, who wrote AFRICAN HUNTER, wrote of this book."No one but a madman would go on safari without a copy of Big Game Shooting in Africa." He planned all his trips with this work in hand. Covers virtually all of Africa and its animals. The accounts of early hunting expeditions in…to Africa, mainly post WW I till the late 1920s, must be read to be believed. In these days one could hire porters and animals such as donkeys or camels and trek into the interior for weeks, sometimes months, on end and essentially shoot without limit, albeit the contributing authors display a remarkable self-restraint when it came to selective hunting. Contributors include; Major H.C. Maydon, H.R.H. the Duke of Gloucester, R. Akroyd, Captain G. Blaine, Lt.-Col. R.E. Drake-Brockman, Major F.D. Browne, Major G. Burrard, A.L. Butler, Major A.L.

Smith, Colonel H.G.C. Swayne, Colonel J.L.F. Tweedie, H.F. Varian, and R.C. Wood. While all sections in this book are worth reading the ones by Gilbert Blaine and Hugh Maydon are especially so. Fine in in very good jacket with pieces missing.
