The African Diary of
Bob Eastman


If you like the writings of Ruark and Hemingway, you will like this book, for a taste of Africa comes through on every page. No listings of I shot this and I killed that, but rather the book offers interesting and riveting anecdotes from safaris that happened to other people while the author was in camp. Bob Eastman is a long-bow hunter who started hunting in Africa in 1967. He has hunted in just about all of the places that were open to hunting in the last 40-plus years—Tanzania, Angola, Zambia, Mozambique, Cameroon, Kenya, and many more. Whether it is a PH completely down on his luck or a hunt gone completely awry, if you like African adventure without the he-man, macho bit, you will enjoy this book. One of his fellow hunters is nearly trampled by an angry elephant in Mozambique, but Bob hardly mentions his own close calls. Eventually Bob Eastman shoots an elephant in Angola measuring an astonishing 137x133 pounds—a world record for a bow. No matter where this book takes you—the sweltering rain forest of the Cameroon, the Niassa Reserve, or the dry bush of the Kalahari—you will read much about the people encountered, noteworthy incidents, the game, and Africa itself.
