If you miss in this hunt...

…you will probably get eaten! Much better than a video game; Jim Corbett was the real deal.

I was looking for my copy of this book the other day; must have loaned it-time to buy another copy.

It occurred to me that some of the hunting folks here might enjoy reading it.

I like Corbett a great deal. Peter Byrne and Peter Hathaway Capstick are also good writers. Capstick is definitely my favorite and he wrote quite a few books. I ended up buying them all from Safari Press. Capstick hunted and fished everywhere from Argentina to Africa(Professional Guide, game ranger and elephant control officer) and he also writes about the men who explored Africa. Barnes and Noble usually will have a book or two his in the sports section.

Here’s a vid the BBC made about one of Corbett’s most famous hunts.
