Description
Hardcover, 340 pages.
Cooper recounts his African safaris for lion, buffalo, kudu, crocodile, hippo, and a host of antelope species primarily in southern and eastern Africa. Hardbound in dark red boards with bright gilt lettering. Well illustrated with text photos.
During the author’s many African safaris spread across two decades, Johnny Cooper has witnessed the swirling changes of the dark continent along with the many adventures that are a part of safari life. This book carries the reader through many of these adventures with the excitement, suspense, humor, and sometimes tragedy as they unfold. The author never holds back with describing his own blunders with an honest humor that accurately describes how an African safari can go bad as well as be the adventure that one remembers for the rest of their life. This book is not just another hairy chested tale of close call bravado, even though the author has his close calls with buffalos and a charging lion, but a book that many times shows how an unsuccessful hunt or a missed shot can hold just as much adventure. Growing up hunting and fishing extensively in coastal South Carolina, coupled with his vast experience in the African bush has helped prepare the author with the ability to describe the hunting scenes as they unfold as if the reader is right there on the stalk. Cooper’s direct and straight to the point literary style will keep you on the edge of your seat or laughing at the self deprecating humor that makes the author your hunting buddy throughout this book. We are all bushwhacked once Africa gets into our blood!
