5.0 out of 5 stars
After 45 years, still the best safari book ever written.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Horn of the Hunter: The Story of an African Hunt (Paperback)
Ruark's wit and irreverence sometimes remind me of Edward Abbey at his best. The book is filled with allusions to the pop-culture of post-WWII America which drove me, a child of the sixties, to learn more about the age. Ruark's love for the Miles and Miles of Bloody Africa is surpassed only by his love for his wife and safari companion, Virginia. A giraffe's head-and-shoulders better than anything Hemingway ever wrote about Africa.
