Excellent. The AbeBooks link lists more copies.

John Dawkins knew John Taylor. Hunted with him in Tanzania. Hosted him at his farm in SE South Australia. One of Taylor's books was written there. I think they hunted water buffalo together as well.

Dawkins book is enjoyable. He made a living from ivory hunting on the limited licences, where say some Indian shopkeeper had a licence, agreed for a hunter to use it for a share of ivory sale proceeds. Only hunter I have read who travelled around towing a caravan for him and hiscwufe to live in, in Tanzania. I wonder what the roads and tracks were like.

I missed out on meeting him but not making the effort. Didn't think of it until speaking to an ex Zim PH living here, who did look him up. Then John Dawkins died from an accident with a pheasant incubator burning him.
