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 .

Hardcover. 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.

Among the cast of characters that played a part in the growth of big game hunting in Central (and East) Africa, Robert Montvoisin must be one of the stars. His involvement over an amazing sixty years (forty of them as a professional hunter) in eight countries (Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Cameroon, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya and Morocco) rivals the career of any African PH. His hunting dates back to the time of legendary Micheletti and Bates and continued past the closing of Kenya when he went to Tanzania and Zambia. Montvoisin hunted in Kenya with the noted Laddy Wincza, in Zambia with the popular David Ommanney and in Tanzania in the noted Selous Reserve. Elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, bongo and Lord Derby eland - from the forest galleries to savannas, lakes and deserts - he's seen them all and taken a host of top trophies for a worldwide clientele. His career as a PH is recognized as one of the most successful in modern times. There are thirty mesmersing chapters. Book fine but no jacket. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. First - Limited to 1,000 Copies. 389 pages, 143 black and white photographic ill. 8 1/2 x 11 inch format. Mac's final book before passing away. A nearly 400-page blockbuster. Covers the antelope of Africa, and the spiral-horned antelope together with antlered game from all over the world. Although spiral horned antelope have long held a mystical attraction for the big game hunter, there are relatively few on the subject. Hunting for other African antelope have been described but never before in a way that presents them in the same challenging environment as the spiral horned game. These stories are a testimony to Mac's story telling ability, to his enthusiasm as a big game hunter and to his dedicated quest for all the African antelope. The following are some of the professionals who guided Mac on hunts described herein: Glen Cottar, Tony Seth-Smith, Karl Luthy, Derek McLeod, Durival Simoes, Norman Deane, Ian Henderson, Peter Johnstone, Gary Kelly, Rohil Nana, Gary Powell, Chappie Scott, Ron Sparrow, Claude Vasselet, Jose Ruis. As regards Antlered Game, Mac took several hundred animals representing 37 races and 19 species. Deer are one of the smartest game animals and represent a tremendous quarry - especially when a trophy specimen is sought. And it's all here in one blockbuster volume. Book fine but no jacket.
