I know this has been hashed out before, my search did not turn out like
I thought so here is the question

I have a modest library what must I add. Here are the books on Africa that I have:

Horn of the Hunter
Use Enough Gun
Green Hills of Africa
Man Eaters of the Tsavo
Last Ivory Hunter
Death in Silent Places
Death in the Long Grass
African Rifles (Taylor)
The Perfect Shot
Audubon Guide on African Animals

On my list is
African Hunter II

What else?

Give me a short list 5-6 titles that you think are absolute "must haves or reads"
