Africa reading ideas
Can't seem to get enough of Africa. Have read all of Capsticks books and have "The Horn of the Hunter" on order. I would sppreciate any of your more ideas to help keep my one hunt alive. Thanks much, smoker1 PS watching Saeed's DVD's for the second time.

While not just hunting, try Monsoon by Wilbur Smith. After that, you'll want to read the rest of his books.

All good suggestions. If you like Horn of the Hunter, you might try some other Ruark books like "Something of Value" and "Uhuru." Not hunting per se, but both good, especially the former.

If you really want to get into it, read the original old-school guys: Raoul Gordon Cumming, William Finaughty, William Charles Baldwin, Frederick Courtney Selous, Arthur Neumann, Arnold Wienholt Hodson, Chauncey Hugh Stigand, William Cornwallis Harris, Denis Lyell, James Sutherland and Owen Letcher.
