They burn the grass in July to get it short again, and the decent hunting starts in August.” Robert RuarkAmericans from Roosevelt to Hemingway to Ruark to Capstick to Robert Jones defined Africa in ways that no European colonist ever would or could. In Augusts in Africa, Thomas McIntyre presents the stories he has gathered from four decades of safari-ing in Africaand from among the most transforming days, weeks, and months of his life.For those who know it well, these tales may read like accurate reflections of their own experiences on the continent. For others who have journeyed to Africa only briefly, or even not at all, there is a transporting insight to be found in them. And if there is more than one account on the hunting of the Cape buffalo, that is only because it, the buffalo, may simply represent the ideal combination (the perfect game”) of size, strength, intelligence, and vehemence to be found in any large wild animal and is therefore indicative of what draws us back again and again to Africa.Whether crouched in a blind for hours until he can clearly make out the individual rosettes on a leopard’s hide or listening to the professional hunter utter Oh oh, you should run” when faced with a charging elephant cow, Tom McIntyre brings to life amazing African animals and exciting expeditions in Augusts in Africa.

Hunters often spend more money on optical equipment than they do on rifles, and yet they usually know very little about “glass.” Binoculars, rifle scopes and range finders cost a minimum of $1,000 each. That consumer wants to ensure he’s spending money on the right products. This book informs the reader what kind of performance to look for in optics, depending on where they’re going and what they’re hunting. Good binoculars and scopes vastly improve a hunter’s focus and range. Specific products are reviewed and presented here – with photos – in an easy-to-understand shoppers’ guide that will vastly improve the hunting experience.Thomas McIntyre is a contributing editor at Field & Stream, where he regularly tests new optics. He lives in Wyoming.
