‘“In Tanganiyka during the 1950’s, one of the most intriguing reputations belonged to a hunter whom few in the fraternity had actually ever encountered face to face.” That is how Brian Herne introduces Jorge de Lima in his own book, White Hunters. Jorge was “a man who genuinely lived to hunt. (and) there has never been a hunter anywhere in Africa, at any time, who has ever come close to matching his exploits in so many different territories.”’ 

Copy number 132 of an edition limited to 1000 copies signed by the author. 

  • Overall Condition: A fine copy in the dust jacket
