A complete revision of James Mellon's African Hunter. There is a total of 25 countries covered, with thorough in-depth overviews of their hunting areas, background information, and best times to hunt. All the game animals are covered including the Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino, and elephant); the nine spiral-horn antelope; game indigenous to only one region; game indigenous to most regions; the rarities; the plains game, etc. Great stories by people who have hunted and lived in the areas. There are chapters on medical preparation, booking a safari, trophy care, the rules, and the rifles. There is also a detailed checklist of game animals by country, and detailed maps. There were more than two dozen contributors. There are hundreds of color photographs, and updated tables on animals and where they are available. No doubt, this is the ultimate safari guide.
