I just received a new Safari Press catalog and immediately noticed Buzz's new book is available for purchase this fall. Congratulations to Buzz.

In the description it states, "He (Buzz) is refreshingly honest about his own mistakes and shortcomings and is not afraid to point out clients who could do with some modesty, more skill, or better behavior."

I am hoping he leaves me out and Pray to God that there are no Mankini photos included.

Congrats Buzz!!!

look forward to it...

Cheers Buzz!

A book is a way more lasting testament than a video, no matter how good the video.
I am eagerly awaiting this.
Who do you suppose will play Buzz when Hollywood comes calling? I’m thinking Rupert Grint for Justin...

Damn I didn't realize he could write... at least that's what Pete said!

Nice

I am looking forward to reading this book.

However, I hope they have some signed copies that are not leather bound ones that cost $750.00. That's a little much for me.

Awesome news. Well done Buzz.

Cheers

I assisted Buzz with the editing of his book and the pitfalls of getting it published - it contains wonderful, light-hearted stories and some hard-hitting and honest home-truths. I too look forward to finally seeing it in print.

I will buy it for sure.

Looking forward to it!!

I’ll bet there are going to be some great photos in it as well!!

Cheers

Nick

Damn, I have to wait till fall. Should be a good read.

I'm just glad I didn't shoot Boris the Hyena like some of the other guys.



I did find Boris in my shower one evening after a long day in the field.

Set up by MEJ, Blake, and Alan!!

This is great news. A book we can read from a living legend. I'm getting my copy ASAP!

Hope he brings plenty of copies to DSC .

Does he stand on a ladder to tell these tales?

God I crack myself up...

ugh sorry Buzz.....

My next book for sure. I loved his DVD's and I'm sure this book will be my bedside book.
Hoping to hunt with him one day too.

Should be good reading, the point of view from the PH versus the Client.

Who wants to place odds shootaway made the book with cowgate?

I had wondered if there were any stories from AR members in the book.

It was a weak moment of immaturity. I thought about deleting it after I posted then remembered how for lack of a better term scumbag way he treated C and M.

I have not hunted with C and M, but Mr. Charlton has been very polite down right friendly to me. So, I let the pike stand.

Buzz - I will trade you some single malt and nyama for a copy at DSC

That is one book that is on my "to buy list" !
Can't wait!

…………………………………………………………………..

I can't imagine anything I want to read more. Buzz is a rock star and a gentleman. If his book matches the quality of the narration he wrote for his videos it will be worthwhile. I can't wait.

Presume we get a PH discount? Look forward to reading it. Well done.

Also looking forward to reading it

Yep put my order in this morning...

Laura and I are looking forward to your book! Congratulations on getting it done!! John Clader

I can see the $750 edition at Safari Press, on back order. Any idea where I can find the lower priced option?

Buy it from him directly on his website after it comes out later this year.

$750 boggles my mind...but I do want to read it...

In the most recent Safari Press mail catalog I received I believe it listed the 'regular' edition for $85.

Vicki and I just got back Monday from 14 days with Buzz. He told me about the book, so I ordered it when we got back home. The $750 price is a bit steep, but after paying for a leopard and croc safari....! The rains were late this year, and the Dande jesse is still mostly green, and VERY thick. We got to about 25 yards from a young bull elephant before anyone knew it was there. Had a great time.

I am looking forward to the read. I am certain it will be a good one. Congrats Buzz.

Matt, didn’t you know the $750 edition comes with a lap dance from Buzz in his mankini? Surely that has to be worth something!

As the person responsible for Buzz's involvement with the Mankini ( and one or two other accidental,( but bloody amusing ) pranks, I do hope that Buzz appreciates that whey were all done without malice and that any resulting unsavoury publicity was not of my instigation.
I'm sure that someone of his forgiving nature will have taken my well meaning actions into account when resisting the need to include any personal details in the aforementioned publication, but I have forewarned my Lawyers just in case

In my view a new $750 book doesn`t come into its own right with a size of only 6x9". Had it been 9x16" The size alone + buffalo leather+ goldsides would have dictated the craftmanship alone would cost money. Its a pleasure to sit with a fullsize book almost Regardsless of the containment where the upperlimit of bookbinding comes to it own. Well I am a sucker to all this african/india hunting book stuff..so I`ll jump on the bandwaggon anyway. :-)

Looking forward to reading Buzz's book and adding it to my Africa Hunting Book Collection
