Smoker1Africa 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.

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

lavacaAll 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.
