Zustand: new. (Hardcover, 2004). 2004 2nd edition reprint. Folio (240 x 310mm). Ppx,606. Colour photographs throughout, maps, bibliography. Dark green cloth, spine titled in gilt. Fine unread copy in dust-wrapper. The prototype of this book, Jay Mellon's African Hunter, was published in 1975. This was drawn from numerous contributors, based on experience gathered in the 1960s and '70s. "Jay Mellon wrote about the Africa of a different era. .in which elephants with tusks over a hundred pounds a side were not unusual and when there was little or no pressure from expanding human populations on the game fields." The period of decolonisation from the 1960's onwards saw the spread of civil wars, chaos and economic crises, a spin-off of which was the disappearance of much large, edible fauna in an African countryside awash with military rifles and empty of effective law-enforcement. African Hunter II is based on Mellon's old book but addresses the new situation, where many governments have taken control of their own countryside once more, and see game management and regulated hunting as one means of repairing the damage of the last few decades. Detailed information on present day safari hunting in Africa, country by country. Local experts conttribute information and advice, as well as numerous anecdotes of their own experiences in the field. Three or four chapters each on: South Africa, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Zambia, Mozambique, Namibia, Angola, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, the Congo, Central African Republic, Egypt. Contributors include: Craig Boddington, Charles Leonard Black, A.Nonymous, Peter Flack, Henry van den Broecke, Gregor Woods, Tony Tomkinson, Lou Hallamore, Graham Hingeston, Jan Oosthuizen, Joe Coogan, Bob Peterson, Elias Phiri, Rolf Rohwer, Joof Lamprecht, Hugo Seia, Steven Christenson, Walt Prothero and many more. .
