Bell was probably not the greatest Elephant Hunter. There were many, many men who shot more Elephants and spent a greater amount of time in the bush. Jim Sutherland comes to mind.

There is a very good book by Dennis Lyle about all of the old timers. I forget the title but someone here will have it I am sure.

Just one more note. Being a Great Elephant Hunting Writer does not mean you are the Greatest Elephant Hunter. If that were true PHC would have shot everything in Africa.

One more thing. Slow down a bit.

Us olden guys can't keep up with your thought train.
