    Many of you have read books of Africa. You may find this interesting


    This is Rigby's eulogy of Harry Selby:

    We invite all of our followers to join us and take a quiet moment to reflect and commemorate the life and adventures of Harry Selby a truly great hunter and the last of the golden era. Harry 92, passed on Saturday at home in Botswana. He will be rightfully remembered alongside other immortal big game hunting names such as Bell and Corbett. Rigby owes him a special debt of gratitude for giving the .416 such legendary status. "Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived that distinguishes one man from another." ― Ernest Hemingway

    World is a poorer place with the loss of men like Selby. Saddest part is that those times are long gone.
    I am glad I am not young in todays world.
