My parents recently gifted me this first edition book (African Hunting from Natal to Zambesi written by William Charles Baldwin) as a thank you.

I am not familiar with author or the history surrounding him but I will be doing further reading/research into Baldwin. I just wanted to share this as I appreciate history and I’m sure of you guys so as well.

Wasnt one of his books in the Capstick reprint series?
 
I had the whole series but sold it here a while back.
 
In the “similar threads” listed below, there is a wealth of info about the man and the book from Monish and “others” from back in 2010. Very cool book!

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
