Do you write "Bits & Pieces" for Sporting Shooter magazine ? Is your pen name "Nick"

They mention the same book in that column.

Interesting quotation attributed to Baker in that magazine

"Yes, this is the Asian water buffalo (Ceylon variety) so often disregareded by moden sportsmen
in favour of the "Noble" Cape Buffalo. I can say from my experience that the Asian variety is more
likely to fight and every bit as determined!"
