I just finished One Man, One Rifle, One Land and have started Another Rifle Another Land. These are serious books on hunting and very detailed. Anyone know him or about him? | ||

Met him once in BC at an outfitters camp where I was working as a guide. Was a really nice guy and, unlike a lot of the film/book types I have met along the trail, he was a very serious hunter and knew what he was doing. Not pretentious and easy to be around. That was some some time ago........... yikes, just thinking about it I guess it was the early 90's. ______________________________________________ The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who are bereft of that gift. | |||

I have seen his books in Safari Press for years but never bought one.Hell,we can't buy them all. I could be wrong since I have not read them but was his choice of calibre 30-06? Never mistake motion for action. | |||

THanks for moving this thread here. Just trying to get more info. Seems like a great guy and serious hunter, not a collector. | |||

I need to get his Asian book one of these days. He is a great writer. Glad he put down the scalpel and picked up then pen. | |||

I'm not certain, but I may have bought the first freelance article he ever sold 100 years ago when I was SCI's publications director. In person he is a humble man who seems to always accomplish what he starts out to do. With SCI's backing, he got Congress to amend the Marine Mammal Act (although only temporarily) to allow U.S. hunters to import polar bear trophies they had taken legally in Canada. Norman: Yes, he used a .30-06. Bill Quimby | |||
