I got to meet one of my heroes in Dallas recently, Peter Flack. He is my favorite writer and I devour his books.

He is starting a series of books on the spiral horned antelope. His first book is out -

"Hunting the Spiral Horns - KUDU - The Top African Antelope". I wrote a review in the Books forum if you are interested.

The second one is out as well on Eland. I am just starting it.

These are fantastic books and you will love them!

I'm already waiting to read the next in the series: Bushbuck!

Not coming out soon enough.

I just picked up a copy of his "Hunting Icons" book at SCI and it is superb. I enjoyed Kudu very much and have the Eland book which is next on my list after Icons. He writes with refreshing honesty and the perspective of a crusty old hunting veteran. I am jealous of all of his adventures over the African continent.

I never heard of this writer but he seems like interesting reading..Can anybody tell me where to get his books in Europe?

Peter Flack is far more than a writer.

You can buy his books at his webpage HERE ... as well as his documentary The South African Conservation Success Story.

... which reminds me; I could probably schedule a University viewing of his documentary, but I'd need to get a look at it first, so if anyone here in the US could loan me a copy, I'd appreciate it. (I'll pay postage.)

If you like his books try these titles. Heart of a african hunter and Tales of a trophy hunter in africa. Both are very good reads.

Thanks a lot! I will try to get them!
