Aspen Hill AdventuresThat would definitly be an adrenalin rush.
What? Another book that I don't have.
Saeed, please quit doing this, I am going broke reading your posts.
Wait a minute. I didn't think I remembered this in the Safari Presses catalog. Indeed, not in their current list on their website. How long ago did you get this, Saeed?

I'm sure that this old lady just wanted me away from her "family", and, needless to say, she accomplished the task.... Serious about stomping me to mush, or not.
Will,
I am not sure how long ago I got this book.
It says here that it is the 24th book published by Safari Press.
Why don't you check with them if any available?
Saeed,
I did. They have a copy for $165 (and buying them for $80!).
Maybe someone here has one that might want to sell me one for somewhere inbetween.

500grainsCool photo sequence!
Saeed,
It was published in 1990. No wonder I didn't buy it, I was just a mere babe at the time!

Okay, I ordered a copy of Pardal's book. Please quit posting this stuff. You're killing me.

b.martinsJos� Pardal published two other books a few years back : "Cambaco I" and "Cambaco II". I have a copy of each at home(both signed by the author) .
That same sequence is shown in one of the books but both are loaded with incredible photos.
I will check if there is an english edition.
Jos� Pardal is now an old man but we managed to go back to his loved Mozambique about two years ago for what was, probably, is last african hunt.
