Safari 101 Hunting Africa: Getting There and Back
Autor David L. Brownen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2012
Safari 101 is written for the hunter that has always considered Africa out of reach, someone who has a spark of desire just waiting to be fanned into a flame. The myths of being “too expensive” and “too difficult” are firmly entrenched in many hunters’ minds. Safari 101 has forty-six hints dispersed throughout 11 chapters and proves these myths false. Personal stories are used to illustrate the value of each hint and to make each one easy to remember. When Brown took his first Safari, he was forced to rely on word of mouth for information, as all of the books he found were for photo Safaris. This book takes Brown's experiences, and what he learned from professional hunters and outfitters, and puts the information in a logical progression that is entertaining as well as informative. The book will help fan the spark into a flame.

Recenzii
"Your book has been a great pleasure to read and I cannot thank you enough for writing this book. It helped turn that spark into a flame and I cannot wait to book a hunt.
I have contacted Mr. Veldsman and he was extremely quick on the return e-mail.
I respect your take on the African game and I know that I want to take a zebra, blue wildebeest, and a kudu, but I can't decide on an eland or a waterbuck. Any recommendations?
I think I will go through Mr. Veldsman for the hunt because of the great experiences I've read about in your book."
-Dale R.
"Thanks for the Safari 101 book. This is a much needed book, I have already read more then half of it and have learned a great amount of new information about planning my safari. I will be going in 2013.
Thanks again for the book."

"Just back from my first trip to Africa. Your book was very helpful in the planning and spot on. As a new graduate of Safari 101, I’m looking forward to Safari 201, otherwise known as 'How To Pay For Your Second African Hunting Safari'. Keep up the good work.“

"Thank you again for taking the time to speak with me. I received your book the same day we spoke. Read it this weekend. On one hand I was happy to see that I had figured out a few things before speaking with you and reading the book but on the other hand I wish I would have had it sooner as it would of saved me a boat load of time. It’s packed with a lot of good tips. It is a great resource which I think any first timer should have. For that matter I’m keeping it handy for trip 2, 3 and 4. (fingers crossed) Thanks again, and I hope to be in contact upon getting back from hunting with Shona. On that same note, best of luck on your trip."

"Extremely well done, great information and written in a form that's fun to read. GREAT COMBINATION and sometimes hard to pull off!
I particularly liked your section about "tipping", something that is seldom covered in other books on going to Africa or for that matter other hunts.
As mentioned it's extremely well written, contains a BUNCH of good information and written where it's fun to read. Also appreciated your comments on drinking while in camp... I too enjoy "sundowners" but I've seen some who have carried it too far and didn't enjoy the next morning...
Thanks for a great book!"

"After reading your book I felt like I had made a good friend. This book was especially helpful as my wife wants to accompany me on the trip. We are interested in touring in addition to the hunt. My wife is a non- hunter, but supports me in my love of the outdoors. My concern is that I wanted this trip to be equally enjoyable for her as I expect it to be for me. Your book eased my concern about her having an outstanding experience on the trip. A couple of other things that I felt I had picked up from your book is the need to: 1. have a plan [whether for gear to take, where you want to tour, and what animals you would like to harvest], 2.be flexible, 3.preserve the experience in a journal and by camera, 4. prepare by spending time on the firing range, 5. ask plenty of questions when planning the trip. Your book was very personable and is an easy read. I would recommend this book to anyone planning a first trip to Africa. Your book was a wealth of information to me."

David: Just a quick note to thank you for the wonderful book on plains and dangerous game hunting in Namibia and Zimbabwe. You did an outstanding job and have become an authority on the subject. I especially liked the anecdotal stories and the way the book flowed as a result. Great job and thanks again. The book will be a valuable part of my hunting library!
