I would
personally like to welcome you to my new web site, CRAIGBODDINGTON.COM.
During my lifetime, I have been blessed to turn my passions of shooting and
hunting into a career as an outdoor communicator. During this time, I have
had 20 books and over 3000 magazine features published in an attempt to
share my adventures, memories and observations on the great sports of
shooting and hunting.
The goal of every outdoor writer
is to develop a loyal readership, and to every person who has ever bought
one of my books, read one of my articles, purchased one of my videos or
attended one of my seminars, I am extremely grateful for your support.
Often
in my travels I am
asked about where to purchase a particular book, what new projects am I
working on, or if a particular book is going to be reprinted. All good
questions… but sometimes difficult to answer. Hopefully, this web site
will help answer all of these questions and provide my readers with some
added perks when they purchase books, video and DVD's from me directly.
Outside of a personal appearance or seminar, my new web site is the only
place where you can purchase a signed copy of one of my books!
Many serious book collectors value a signed copy by the author.
If you would like to order a personally signed book, please be patient as I
am often out of the office for a few weeks at a time. I will however make it
a priority to sign and ship your book to you immediately upon my return.
I invite you to use the
"Tell A Friend"
and
"Add To Favorites List" features to let all your
hunting friends and acquaintances know about CraigBoddington.com. Remember to
visit often so that we may keep you up to date on the new book
releases, videos and my personal appearance schedule. I once again would
like to thank you for your
support.

BODDINGTON ON BUFFALO II
(PRODUCED BY SAFARI CLASSICS PRODUCTIONS 2007)
 Back in November, 2004, my partners at Safari Classics Productions and I
released the DVD ‘Boddington on Buffalo’, which we believe set a new
standard in outdoor film making. We are now pleased to announce the release
of the much anticipated sequel to the original classic with the release of
Boddington on Buffalo II, ‘The Future is Now’.
Once again, I have teamed up with Professional hunter
Andrew Dawson as we take the track of Africa’s most popular dangerous game
animal. In addition to over 24 action packed hunting segments within the
film, including two spectacular charges from wounded buffalo, Boddington On
Buffalo II takes an in depth look at the future of buffalo hunting across
Africa with panel discussions including legendary professional hunters such
as Harry Selby and Barrie Duckworth to name just a few.
A featured segment in this film examines the buffalo
safari from an unprecedented point of view, that of the trackers. Several of
Africa’s most experienced trackers share their (beautifully translated)
thoughts and secrets on how they learned, and now practice this magical, but
sadly, vanishing art.
The safari veterans highlighted in this film make a
compelling case to the buffalo hunting fraternity, both professional and
amateur alike, to re-examine the definition of THE TROPHY BUFFALO.
We believe the danger, adventure, and romance of
buffalo hunting from multiple locations across Africa makes Boddington on
Buffalo II a must have for all safari enthusiasts.
I want to make sure that you understand that this is
not a replacement for the original Boddington On Buffalo. Rather, this is
meant to complement that film in an entirely different format.
If you have enjoyed my previous films on African big
game hunting, Boddington on Buffalo II will surely become the centerpiece of
your Africana collection. This is non-stop cape buffalo-start to finish.
Available on DVD – 2 disc set – Total run time 4 hours.
$39.95 plus S&H

 TRACKS
ACROSS AFRICA . . . Another Ten Years
(Safari Press, November 2008)
Twenty years
ago I chronicled my first decade of African hunting with From Mount Kenya to
the Cape. I followed up ten years later with Where Lions Roar, but in my
mind that didn't mean I was making a habit of "ten year African books." In
fact, in 1997 I would have bet that this book, Tracks Across Africa, would
never exist. I would have been wrong. Thanks to our television series of
the same name--and a thirst for Africa that, somehow, has never been
slaked--time spent in Africa has continued to escalate, and has been just as
much fun as it was thirty years ago! Except that, back then, I didn't know
what I didn't know. I'm still learning, and will continue to learn, but
today I am able to look at things based on thirty years' experience and more
than seventy African hunts. While I'll never say "never," I do not predict
that I will write another "ten year African book." I can say that this is
my best (and biggest) African book, and I hope you'll join me as I relive
hunts in far-flung places like Cameroon, C.A.R., Chad, and Ethiopia; classic
destinations like Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique; and of course, today's
most popular safari countries, South Africa and Namibia. Limited Edition,
signed, numbered, in slipcase 326 pages, illustrated in color and black and
white.

Leopard
By Craig Boddington, Tim
Danklef, Dave Fulson
 (Mission
Trails Media, March 2007)
In all my years of African hunting, no other species has provided more highs
and lows than my pursuit of the African leopard, the most beautiful and
possibly the most challenging member of the Big Five. Our new book
Leopard is a joint collaboration with my partners Tim Danklef & Dave
Fulson (producers of my Boddington On Leopard DVD) and is, without a doubt,
the most in depth study on the history and hunting of this magnificent cat
ever produced. After a great deal of
thought and consideration, we have decided to offer Leopard only in
this one time signed, and limited edition printing. Leopard will NEVER
be reprinted neither in another limited edition nor trade edition,
guaranteeing this book will become an instant collectors item. Limited to
1250 copies only, numbered and signed by all three authors.
Leopard:
200 pages with over 150 color photographs, large format, embossed cover.
This book features a custom presentation box including a fronts piece of
renowned artist Guy Coheleach’s “Tree Stand.”
