Originally published in 1931, this book was the first definitive 'Big Game Hunting' anthology to be published in the English language. This is a wonderful collection of the best writings by the best hunters: Selous - Neumann - Percival - Snaffle - Pollock - Baillie-Grohman - Sutherland - Patterson and many others, and is highly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in the subject. Many of these earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
