After reading this book, I am actually considering a plan to get myself over to Africa and preparing a hunt of a lifetime. I know now that I am going on this trip in the next several years. Safari Dreams provides for me the knowledge that I needed to be confident that I could do this trip on my own.Safari Dreams: A Practical Guide To Your Hunt In Africa provides real information for someone who is planning this trip in the near future. It was written for the individual who is contemplating their first safari but contains information that can be a real asset to those who have been to Africa and are planning on going back for the second or third trip.The section on rifles, ballistics and bullet types was incredible and informational. I got some real ideas on the type of weapon that I would want to bring with me and I got to understand that bullet selection and bullet type is going to be more important then caliber selection for African game.This book is a must buy if you think that you are going to be in Africa anytime in the next 5 years. The resources, the checklists, the details, the information provided will make this an absolutely text book as you prepare for your safari. I know because I have already started to mark my book up with a pen and a highlighter and a few years from now I am sure that this book will actually be with me when I step onto African soil for my first safari sometime in the next several years. I know that I am going to Africa and this book gives me enough information to make that trip one I am confident will be a success no matter what game I get because I will have enjoyed the journey.--Kevin C.
