ScriptusThe Hunting Blackbeards of Botswana
In my humble opinion, a really entertaining book recounting several generations of a hunting family, that should be in every library of those who love hunting in Africa and especially those who have hunted Botswana. For those who are nervous around snakes, there are some sad and tragic accounts.
Edited by the late Brian Marsh and put out by Rowland Ward.

ScriptusYup, read the book, a bit of a bugger as they say around here.

MJinesJust take the stories recounted in the book with a bit of a grain of salt . . . I am aware of at least one story in the book that bears little resemblance to reality.
