Extreemly interesting and informative on the hunting and shot placement for big game in the Africa that used to be and I grew up hearing about. If you plan to or hope to go to Africa for big game this is a must read! If you wish you could hunt Africa, like I wish I could, it is a must read!
It will never be as it was again!!
