Re: Maneaters of Njombe( Hunter George Rushby)

Thanks Rigbymauser.

Good series, but for the factual problems in the Rushby episode.

His wife stayed in Mbeya, not out in the bush. He used a double 9.3x74 (IIRC) then went home to England in '46 for six months, before the end of the lions, He sold the rifle for spending money and bought a 404J on his return.

I would not have liked to be chasing maneaters in that nyika between Makambako and Rujewa or further west.

The Corbett episode was good too, with some spectacular scenery.
