I have always been enthralled with Africa and African hunting. I'm sure everyone on this website feels the same way. I have hunted in Botswana, Tanzania, and Zambia. Each was a memorable experience. Like many of you, Peter Hathaway Capstick was and still is my favorite African author. It doesn't matter if he took artistic license with the truth. He was a great story teller and I believe he almost single handedly resurrected the African safari business.
However, I have recently purchased both volumes of Steve Christensen's books when they were placed on sale from Safari Press. He may now become my favorite author. His books are very entertaining, easy to read, and he has hunted in places that I remember well.
I was curious as to whether his PH, Willie Engelbrecht was still active in the hunting world so I did an internet search and found this website. Sadly he has passed on.
I live in Montana which is no stranger to great hunting and I'm blessed to enjoy the Last Best Place's great game fields. I've hunted from the Arctic to the Mexican border and I love it, but Africa? Well, it's Africa, right?
