My daughter asked what I wanted for my birthday and I'm thinking books about hunting Elephant or Buffalo. Any you'd recommend? BTW LaRita is getting me Wills book

African Hunter Magazine's book Nyati

Ron Thomson's Mahohboh

Buzz's DVD Hunting the African Elephant

Terry

Thanks Terry. I guess I should add I've got Buzzs DVD, I've watched it about 4 times now and I'm reading Boddinggtons "Buffalo". Anyone read "Ndlovu- The art of hunting the african elephant"?

Where can I buy a copy of Buzz's elephant DVD?

Ndlovu is a very good book. Well written and very informative. I thoroughly enjoyed it and Nyati. Both books really cover the subject matter well, calibers, countries, biology, shot placement, etc. Expensive, but a good read.

I have read both Ndlovu and Nyati and they are very good as instructional books.

If you want a few others which are more autobiographical;

C.H Stigand "Hunting the Elephant in Africa"

William Finaughty "The Recollections of William Finaughty: Elephant Hunter 1864-1875"

James Sutherland "The Adventures of an Elephant Hunter"

John F. Burger "Horned Death"

Any of WDM Bell's books

Also a second vote for Mahohboh by Ron Thompson. Very interesting book about hunting Elephant as well as their current situation.
