Publisher's note: 'The McCallums have been a thread through the professional safari hunting in Africa for almost 75 years. Alec is a professional hunter who has held licenses in Kenya, Tanzania, Central African Republic, Sudan and Zambia. He talks about the safari men who constantly faced danger and loved it, of being governed in the early days only by a love of personal freedom and playing by rules which were never written down. No one has told this story of changing Africa quite like Alec McCallum. The 200 photos take us on a panoramic journey through the African big game hunting community that fewer and fewer individuals are able to tell.'
