(Hardcover, 1989). (1955) 1989 2nd edition reprint. 8vo (158 x 236mm). Ppxviii,355. B/w photographs. Red coth, spine titled in black. Very good in slightly used and spine-faded dust-wrapper. Pondoro means lion in Chinyungwe. It was the name the natives gave to John Taylor when he first began to hunt in Africa on the lower Zambezi in the early part of the twentieth century. For more than thirty-five years, Taylor was a professional hunter, often out of touch with civilization for as long as three and four years at a time: Taylor said that he did not learn of WWII until some of his men brought back provisions wrapped in old newspapers-only then did he learn of the rest of the world wracked by war! Find out what Taylor had to say about the most dangerous animal, how to get downwind of your elephant, what makes a man-eater and how to track it, how hippos navigate in water, when poisonous snakes attack, where to aim when an animal is charging you, and why zebras are considered bad-mannered creatures. Taylor is considered one of the best storytellers in the hunting-book world, and Pondoro is highly entertaining. A quality reprint of this classic African big-game hunting title. .

Zustand: Good. [12], xiv, [2], 431, [3] pages. Illus. Index. Editor's Note by Dr. Jim Casada. Cover has some wear and soiling. Some page soiling noted. John Howard "Pondoro" Taylor (1904-1969) was a big-game hunter and ivory harvester of Irish descent. Born in Dublin as the son of a surgeon he developed an urge to go to Africa and become a professional hunter. Taylor mainly hunted for his own account and had little interest in guiding clients. His parents paid for his passage to Cape Town. In Africa he experimented extensively with different types of rifles and calibers which made him an expert in big game rifles. He is credited with developing the Taylor KO Factor, and authored several books. Although Taylor used various firearms for his work as a hunter, he preferred the expensive, British double rifles over anything else, especially when tackling dangerous game. His fondness for such cartridges as the .450/.400 Nitro-Express, .500/.465 Nitro-Express and .375 Holland & Holland Magnum are expressed again and again in his writing. Of the 450/.400 he says, "It has ever been one of my favorites. I have used it extensively on all kinds of African game from elephant down with the greatest possible satisfaction." Speaking of the .375 Magnum (a cartridge still sold) he wrote, "Undoubtedly one of the deadliest weapons in existence. I've had five of these riflesâ "two doubles and three magazinesâ "and have fired more than 5,000 rounds of .375 Magnum ammunition at game. One of them accounted for more than 100 elephant and some 411 buffalo, besides rhino, lions and lesser game." Taylor killed over 1,000 elephants. This special edition has been privately printed for members of The Firearms Classics Library. Film was prepared from an original 1948 edition. The book was printed and bound by Quebecor Printing.

Jim Casada's formal education includes a B. A. in history from King University, an M. A. in British history from Virginia Tech,and a Ph. D. in British imperial history from Vanderbilt University. He taught at Winthrop University from 1971-1996 before devoting all his energies to writing. While at Winthrop he rose to the rank of full professor, served two terms as chair of the graduate faculty, was recognized as the institution's Distinguished Professor in 1983, and won numerous excellence in teaching awards. As an academician, he wrote several books, roughly a hundred articles, and reviewed numerous books for scholarly journals.
