Big Game Argentina by Craig Boddington
(Patagonia Publishing, December 2009)
This book is quite a bit different from anything I’ve ever done. It is the first book in English on Argentinean big game, despite the fact that Argentina is, actually and perhaps surprisingly, the most popular hunting destination in the world. It is also the first “coffee table” book I’ve done in many a year, amazingly illustrated by Guillermo Zarraquin, a talented young Argentinean photographer who stuck with me through several months of hunting in pursuit of this book. Come to think of it, it was also the first time I’ve been accompanied by a professional still photographer, so we both learned much! The book includes hunting for most Argentinean big game species, with about a dozen outfitters. It’s gorgeous, and I think it covers the subject extremely well.
Hardcover, with dust jacket, 168 pages, 12.5x10” format, 200 color photos and original drawings.

SAFARI RIFLES II - Trade Edition
It was clear back in 1990 when publisher Ludo Wurfbain and I took the plunge and released Safari Rifles. Neither of us envisioned that this would become the best-selling and most enduring title for both of us! That was a long time ago; the last two decades have seen many innovations and changes. When I was writing Safari Rifles I could not envision the incredible resurgence of both the .416s and the double rifle, not to mention the many new cartridges, rifles, and advancements in both hunting bullets and optics. African hunting, too, has changed over time. And, let’s face it: I know a great deal more now than I did back then! SAFARI RIFLES II is not just an update or a revision; it is truly a word-for-word rewrite plus tremendous expansion. The result is the largest book I have personally written, and I think you will agree it is the most comprehensive volume ever done on the timeless subject of rifles, cartridges, bullets, and sights for all aspects of African hunting. And of course, I conducted a new "Professional Hunters Survey" so you can see what over 100 current PHs recommend! I hope you enjoy this one, because I don’t expect to ever do this again! Hardcover, dust jacket, 6x9”, 608 pages, illustrated primarily in color, historical photos in black and white.

TRACKS ACROSS
AFRICA . . . Another Ten Years -
Trade Edition 
(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. Trade Edition, in slipcase 326 pages, illustrated in color and black and
white.

"Buffalo!"
by Craig Boddington
(Safari Press, May 2005)
Over the course of nearly 30
years of African hunting, one of the things you learn is the animal that
excites you the most. For me, that is buffalo first and foremost. I have
hunted them in a dozen African countries and I have been very lucky with big
buffalo. But whether a monster or just an average bull, there is nothing
more exciting than getting close to buffalo. In this this book, I share with
the reader a wide range of topics including hunting destinations, trophy
judgment, shot placements, hunting techniques, “other” as well as Cape
buffalo…and more. Whether you have hunted buffalo or just plan you, I am
sure you will enjoy reading this book as much as I did writing it.
