WinkQuestion about Safari Press books
I get the Safari Press catalog, and have bought many books from them. Of the Classic Africa Hunting series (the high end slip-cased and signed books) which ones are really good reads?

WinkAlright, then which of all of the books you have read in that collection do you consider to be the top three, in your opinion?

Hunting is not a matter of life or death....It's much more important

D99A lot of the slipcased ones are boring as hell.
I am selling out of my high end books, with us moving all over the world all the time it's just too much money to get burned with on a bad move.
I have had most of the Boddington books, The Weatherby, and a lot of others.
These are the most interesting hunting books I have ever read.
Boddington Where the lions roar
Keith Hell I was there
O'Connor The rifle book
