If willing to split please let me know what you want for “I Didn’t Know It Was Loaded”, “One For the Road” and “Honey Badger”. I have all the others.
 
If you will sell horn of the hunter and use enough gun, let me know.
 
Andrew, I have my own copy of Horn of the Hunter and am reading it now. I'm really enjoying it.
 
All good books, read them all. Best is Horn of the Hunter, Something of Value and Use Enough Gun. Uhuru is also good as are the rest. He was a fine writer that drank himself into an early grave.
What a shame.
 
Someone on here asked me to list them all as a package, so I did. Some of the first editions are worth well over $200 each. Something Of Value changed my look at Rhodesia during the Bush War since things were heading in the same direction. Uhuru sealed the deal. I want to share the writings, thoughts and adventures of Ruark, so I am open to offers on individual books or combos.
