IGX

Two easy reading books by Peter Capstick. In the first title, Capstick paints an exciting and intriguing picture of his own time as a Professional White Hunter in Central and East Africa during the 1950s-70s. Most of his encounters are with dangerous game at extremely close ranges. Elephants at 15 meters, wounded lions at arm's length; that line of country. Much whiskey is drank and game meat eaten. A bit corny at times, but prefaced with a thoughtful discussion of wildlife conservation, hunting ethics and a general condemnation of the pussification of the American male. (This trend seems to have begun when I was practically still in diapers, if not earlier.) The second title is Capstick's telling of a number of 19th-20th century Great White Hunters' exploits. Anyone who liked the movie "The Ghost in the Darkness" will appreciate these stories.

He's certainly no Hemingway, but both books are a good read nonetheless. If nothing else, Capstick deserves credit for living an IGx-worthy life.

Did you ever read Unrepentant Sinner?

No, is it worth a look?

I liked it and its along similar lines.

I'll add it to my list while I'm into the genre.

Plus, we have to keep this thread on top of the voluntary castration through road biking thread below. Just reading it makes my T-levels plummet.

Nafod has nothing to lose. Bikes really are for fags.

Well, at least he isn't road biker.
