Publisher's Summary
White Hunters is a nostalgic and densely-packed history of these men and their adventures, from the turn of the century until the 1970s when politics, a growing population, civil strife, and concern about species destruction intervened. Brian Herne has written a virtual and anecdotal Who's Who of White Hunters, crammed with the details of hundreds of hunts and the dozens of men who led them.
Critic Reviews

An excellent book!
I really enjoyed this book. The author has his own first hand experience in hunting dangerous big African game. The research and knowledge is well spread out amongst the many chapeters. An enthralling and exciting read with many poignant reminders on conservation and protection of the land and animals of Africa. Thank you Brian and Robert for a fantastic book

Loved it!
Great stories of another era. True stories of survival, bravery, humour, history, savagery, politics and animals. If you liked Out of Africa you will enjoy these true tales of daring in a dangerous landscape.
