The Hunter is Death:- T.V. Bulpin - Protea - 2014 - Paperback as new.

For true buffs on Africana, George Rushby is one of the most respected, experienced hunters of the 20th century. Not as well known as Selous, Bell, of Taylor, he nonetheless shot, legally and illegally, scores of dangerous game as a meat hunter for the railroads and farms in early 20th centure Africa to his years as a Game Ranger, killing off one of the most feared and prolificly vicious pride of lions in the Njombe district of Tanganika in the 40's who were responsible for an extimated 1500-2000 deaths.
Unlike most hunting classics written (or ghost written) by hunters themselves, this is written and thoroughly researched by Bulpin, a very solid and thorough writer in his plain but interesting narrative style.
A fun, well-written book for anyone interested in this, the last, era in the days of Colonial Africa where hunters were heroes and men of legend.
