Gregor Woods is one of the most experienced hunters today on the African continent, having shot game with everything from small centerfire .22 calibers right up to some of the most powerful cartridges available. In this milestone book, he gives the reader his experiences and conclusions based on 40 years of hunting most of the game animals of the mysterious and always fascinating Dark Continent.

Based in Durban, South Africa, he has made dozens of safaris to the classic African game fields of Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Namibia, Botswana and South Africa, where he has had numerous experiences with dangerous game as well as the dozens of varieties of antelope.

Readers of Magnum magazine will recognize his name as the author of numerous articles in which his no-nonsense, practical bent shines. This latest work is invaluable to the person who seeks advice and information on what rifles, calibers, and bullets work on African big game, be they the largest land mammals on earth or an antelope barely weighing in at twenty pounds.
