Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. Reprint. 336 pp, 43 ill. The long awaited reprint of perhaps the best biography ever done on RObert Ruark. It's been ten years since the original limited edition of only 1,000 copies sold out in less than a year. This reprint ed even has some extra photos not in that ed…ition. Through major novels and thousands of newspaper articles, Ruark was known to millions. This old man's boy was a warrior, columnist, reporter and big game hunter. His popular novels are reprinted even to this date. And the demand for this Foster biography now is being fulfilled. Ruark was a man who saw the winds of change sweeping through Africa and his own life. He was a visionary, a man who always lived his own life at risk, and a noted international hunter (There are worse memorials to life than a book or a tusk.) Hugh Foster spent hundreds of hours doing research for this biography both with Ruark's papers and with people who knew him. He's produced an exciting biofgraphy of a man as well as a look at a man and a continent both scrambling for existence. THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE NOW . Dealler discounts for quantity purchases available.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. Reprint. FINALLY, the long awaited (it's been ten years) reprint of the best biography ever done on Bob Ruark. 336 pages, 43 ill. The first limited ed of 1,000 copies printed in 1992 sold out in less than a year! So we expect big things for this reprint edition. Through… ten major books and thousands of newspaper columns, Ruark was known to millions around the world. In his short lifetime, he grew from "an old man's boy" to warrior, columnist, reporter and big game hunter. His newspaper columns in many ways accurately predicted what would happen in Africa when European powers engineered independence for their colonies. He was also a noted big game hunter (There are worse memorials to a great life than a book or a tusk.) In the end, this old man was all wore out, but during his life he was a belt level reporter, a visionary and a man who always lived at risk. Hugh Foster spent hundreds of hours of research and hundreds more interviewing Ruark's friends in order to compile this informative, insightful, and exciting biography of a man and a continent both scrambling for existence.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. First Limited to 1,000 Copies. 290 pp. Over 100 ill. Foreword by Marc Pechenart. Make room on your shelf for a new classic. There are more photos of 100-lb elephant trophies in this book than in most others. This is the incredible autobiography of an intrepid hunter. Th…e author was himself hunted during WWII and twice escaped back to his native France before heading for western Africa and then Central Africa. He was more like a John Boyes than a mere hunter. One of his favorite sayings: anything that does not deserve a .470 is not worth hunting; when in a dangerous situation make your mind up quickly and move your butt even more so. Tre-Hardy was selected as personal PH to most French Presidents that visited Central Africa during his career. It is both an excellent account of a hunting life in post WWII Colonial Africa and there are many serious jumbos hunted between the covers of this tome. It is beautifully written and well above the ordinary. It will be enjoyed by all who want to stalk an amazing assortment of huge ivory as well as getting a very interesting look at adventure from all "those British chaps." An absorbing work. Signed by Author(s).
