Death in the Long Grass, Death in Silent Places, and Death in the Dark Continent by Peter Capstick. Not needed for your safari but tremendously entertaining. Trophy Hunter in Africa by Elgin Gates. Not needed on your safari but gives a great idea of what the old East Africa was like. In addition, if you are going to a special locale, I can recommend books for reading on designated areas.
