Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st English Edition. Hardcover in faux leather binding with gilt titles in Fine condition, dustwrapper with some light shelfwear but otherwiseVery Good+ condition. First English edition, Signed and Inscribed by Anno Hecker to writer Ian Alcock and his wife, pp xiii, 167, b&w illustrations throughout. For a long time Anno Hecker resisted requests from both family and friends to publish some of his African experiences to give them an idea of what the African wilderness, its people and game were like. At least he has done so. Although he was not one of the lucky fellows who were born and bred in Kenya, with the opportunity to hunt big game from his childhood onwards, Anno's stories are all that more exciting and interesting as he had to teach himself how to hunt as he went along. From his notes and memory he has written, in no particular order, what he considers important and of interest to sportsmen. As an official thank you for his time in the Foreign Aid Service, he has a letter from the Permanent Secretary acknowledging the "outstanding services rendered to the Federal Republic of Germany". Surely a noble gesture but not as much appreciated as the words of an old, illiterate tracker from the Luwegu river in the Selous. In the 1980's, when a friend had wounded an elephant, he asked the professional hunter, a Maasai, whether he would allow Anno to finish off the wounded beast which had gone into the thick stuff. The Massai handed over his .4 58 FN Mauser for the coup de grace.As he was about to enter the thicket, Mfupa, the withered old tracker, wanted to guide him, an offer he kindly declined as he preferred to go alone on probably the last elephant hunt of his life. Whereupon Mfupa, with a respectful look in his eyes, remarked in Kiswaheli, "Ah! This one is still one of the old hunters from very long ago.". Signed and Inscribed by Author.

Condizione: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (New, Hardcover, 2014). (2001) 2012 revised 2nd edition. Large 4to (215 x 282mm). Ppxiv,193. B/w photographs, maps, colour end-paper illustrations. Brown boards, upper board and spine titled in gilt. Fine new copy in dust-wrapper. "When eight-year-old Adelino Serras Pires first arrived on a boat from Portugal in 1936, Mozambique was a tropical paradise, where native tribes and Portuguese colonists lived in harmony and where vast wilderness areas held the promise of endless excitement. A few weeks into Adelino's new life, his father took him along on a successful hunt for man-eating lions that had been terrorizing the countryside. From that point on, Adelino's destiny was sealed - he would spend his days in the African bush, hunting for a living and living for adventure. After a childhood replete with thrilling episodes, Adelino became a major safari organizer with a client list comprising African royalty, European aristocracy and dignitaries, American astronauts and adventurers from around the world. Life in Mozambique, however, came under increasing threat to all its inhabitants as a foreign-incubated mood of violence began to take root. The Frelimo guerrilla movement, bent on ousting the Portuguese and on crushing all internal dissent, began launching attacks throughout the land. Such attacks resulted, amongst other things, in injury and death involving safari clients. This forced Adelino into a war of his own as he fought back to the end in a country that had long since become his permanent home. What follows is a frightening look at a continent under siege. As Adelino moved through sub-Saharan Africa - each time resuming his life's ambition - he repeatedly witnessed the violence and horror of armed conflict. Like a hunter stalking its prey, it was only a matter of time before the forces of revolution brought him down too. That day came when Adelino, his son, his nephew and a fellow hunter were abducted in Tanzania and turned over to the secret police in Frelimo-controlled Mozambique. In hair-raising detail, Adelino recounts months of torture and interrogation in Mozambique and in Tanzania, which almost cost him his life, and the treacherous circumstances that landed him in that hell. The Winds of Havoc is a story of Adelino's steady disillusionment, as the beauty of Africa slowly gave way to political turmoil corruption and decline. But more than that, this book is a moving portrait of a life and time that are now gone forever." .

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1997). (1992) 1997 Rowland Ward reprint. Square 8vo (164 x 215mm). Ppvi,274. B/w photographs, Rowland Ward zebra-pattern end-papers, red boards, spine titled in white. Slight shelf-wear else fine unread copy in dust-wrapper. Forty years of big game hunting and colonial service in the closing years of the East African colonies. "Stephen J. Smith, the famous white hunter from Kenya, tells tales of his professional hunting days through Africa from 1955 to 1992. A compelling and amusing read. Stephen was a great advocate of ethics in the hunting field, believing very firmly that it was a privelege to hunt, not a right." .
