The two professional hunters pictured here are (from the left) Andrew Holmberg and Harry Selby. Ruark is standing on the right.

And, that 'presciently prophetic fiction' was none other than Ruark's "Something Of Value" which actually told the truth(with fictional character names-all other information being truthful) about the Mau Mau rebellion. The Kenyan government didn't take kindly to Ruark's book (and later a movie) and because of this he became persona non gratis there. ("Prohibited Immigrant") THANK YOU ANN! Robert Ruark has been one of my favorites since I was a teenager and discovered "USE ENOUGH GUN" in my father's libary over 53 years ago, and thus it became my moniker on AR.
