Sometimes an author will use a single initial rather than the persons name to identify a hunting companion, i.e. " C. and I got up next morning to look for lion." More often than not "C" is never properly identified. Anyone know the reason for this? | ||

My guess has always been that it was either because the author did not have permission to identify his hunting partner, or to protect his hunting partner from the law. Jason "You're not hard-core, unless you live hard-core." _______________________ Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt. Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure. -Jason Brown | |||
