Customer Reviews

Philosophical Frank

This book offers a lot of Frank's philosophy about the pastime of hunting. It helped me clarify the reasons why I have been a hunter for 50 years. His heartfelt thoughts, written in plain-spoken words, are intertwined with his exciting narrations of hunting in Africa and North America. There is a good measure of humor, some of it the kind you only hear around the campfire when hunting with other men, but all in good taste, in my opinion. Only a couple "fish stories" that would make you wonder if Frank might have enhanced the telling a little, and many completely believeable dramatic adventures. Some charming touches like not correcting some mis-spellings that were probably part of his journal writing while in camp.

The Inner Force; Return to the Dark Continent

I am not a hunter; but this book was really interesting to read. It was an exciting story of an African hunt and all the amazing things that go on when you put your life into the hands of the wild. Kept me drawn into the book and couldn't wait to find out what adventure came next!
