The second old time hunters book collection contains the classic African hunting volumes by Anthony Seth Smith, Ian Manning, Ian Nyschens, Finn Aagaard and many more.

Anthony Seth Smith worked in the Kenya Game Department for three years before entering the safari industry as a PH. He was a full member of the East Africa Professional Hunters Association and one of the original members of the International Professional Hunters Association. He has hunted extensively throughout Africa - Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Southern Sudan, Zambia, and Botswana

The author relates his life of working in Kenya as a big game hunter and guide before hunting was banned in that country in favour of large scale poaching.

Ian Manning grew up in Africa and was a game cropping ranger, a professional hunter and later a wildlife biologist. He also enjoyed hunting for himself for the sheer adventure of the sport.

Reading this book makes you understand why anyone who has ever hunted in Africa wants to return again.

Peter Hay relates hunting stories from the more remote parts of Africa.

Cotton Gordon was one of the few Americans whose name appears in the ranks of the African Professional Hunters. His experience spanned four decades. This book deals with everything about big game hunting: professional hunters, clients, etc.

Philip Percival guided Hemingway on both of his African safaris and was described by Papa as "the finest man I ever knew in any war or any peace."

The author recalls his long hunting career as a professional hunter in the safari business.

Ian Nyschen's career as an elephant hunter began in 1947 in Southern Rhodesia when he found a companion - Faanie Joosten, and the pair of them started hunting for ivory for a living.

Having shot well over 1,000 elephants under circumstances that will be unbelievable to some, Ian Nyschens and his hunts with his double rifle are sure to impress.

Self published by Ian Nyschens shortly before his death.

John Burger was employed by various companies to supply meat for the workers of the railroads before WW II, and has had probably more experience shooting African buffalo than any other person.

This is considered as the Bible (by some) on hunting the African buffalo, written by a man who shot more than one thousand of them in his lifetime.

John Burger's incredible hunting adventures in the African wilds, this volume focuses on hunting the Cape Buffalo. This book is the abridged, later version of Horned Death.

Tales of adventure that "cover a wide area, stretching from the Congo to the Abyssinian border". "The reader is taken on the trail of the buffalo, lion, elephant, and leopard [as well as] recollections of the strange women he met who took readily to the life of the jungle"

Campfire tales which are not confined to hunting adventures, but also include eye-witness accounts of cannibal tribes on the Ivory Coast, ordeals by poison, water, witchcraft, the influence of the medicine and fetish men.

Forty years of wandering through Africa from the Sudan to the Cape, mostly on foot. His early experiences reach back to the pioneer days of the great hunters, many of whom he knew personally.

Burger's second volume of African adventures in pursuit of elephant, buffalo and lion. During his career as a hunter and miner he travelled and hunted all over southern Africa, from the Karoo to the Congo, and spent much time on locust control and mining in Tanganyika.

Finn Aagaard was born and raised in Kenya, a life-long outdoorsman and guide, he pursued that career until it was outlawed in 1977.

The author's lifetime of hunting experiences in his native Kenya.

This book includes the original manuscript of Aagaard's Afica plus his wife Berit has included a lot of addtional material from Finn's meticuluosly kept journals.

Not long before his death in 1999 Finn Aagaard recorded approximately 3 hours of stories and reminiscences from his early days as a youth in Kenya to his PH career to his moving to the United States and writing for the NRA.
