Alexander Lake was a big game hunter, but a hunter with a difference. Alexander Lake (1893 - 1961) was a big game hunter in Africa during the 1940's and 50's who gave animals a fighting chance. He was born in Chicago, Illinois and moved to South Africa with his family in 1908. At a time -- the late 1940s and early 1950s -- when hunters were selling macho yarns filled to overflowing with false bravado, Lake began debunking all the myths that had been making the rounds that were associated with big game hunters.
