The Illustrated .22 L.R.Hunter in Africa (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781537228204)

This is not a technical book concerning .22 L.R ballistics nor is it a guide to African Ornithology or Wildlife, since there are many books already that deal with this subject concerning the habits of the small game species in Africa, thoroughly and comprehensively.It is Not a story book or work of fiction... So what is it then? I would say that this little book is, in essence, a romantic book, in that it can take its place comfortably on the Big Game hunter's book rack, alongside the works of Robert Ruark, Ernest Hemingway, Selous, 'Pondoro' Taylor, J. A Hunter, James Mellon, Peter Hathaway Capstick, Craig Boddington and many others. What makes it romantic? Three things in essence: Firstly, the .22 Long Rifle calibre itself. Secondly, the surge and quest for adventure; and thirdly, the magic of the African veld and the Bushveld Experience. That's it in a nutshell.
