1.Death in the Long GrassDeath in the Long Grass
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
Mr Capstick employed a writing style that fuels your imagination to the extent you can virtually visualise the scene he has created on paper, with a blend of humour that could ordinarily seem inconsistent with the seriousness of certain situations. Mr Capsticks' writings did (in my opinion)... more info

3.Death in the Dark ContinentDeath in the Dark Continent
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $16.29

Customer Review:
Capstick's pithy and humerous writings, on the one hand, are enough to make you howl with laughter and, in the next instance, scare the heck out of most sane readers. Rate his book a fiver.

4.Death in the Silent PlacesDeath in the Silent Places
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $16.29

Customer Review:
My review hits the middle of the gamut of earlier reviews. Not a hunter, with no desire to be one, I still thoroughly enjoyed the suspense and details of the stories recounted here. I also love the variety, from lions to German cruisers to man-eating leopards. (I must admit to being less favorably... more info

6.African Game Trails: An Account of the African Wanderings of an American Hunter-Naturalist (Capstick Adventure Library)African Game Trails: An Account of the African Wanderings of an American Hunter-Naturalist (Capstick Adventure Library)
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:
I have been interested in reading about Theodore Roosevelt for some time. I finally got around to reading this book. It is rather long, but it is great on adventure. He spent I think over a year in Africa hunting almost every kind of animal. I was also interested in the guns he used because I have a... more info

7.The Last Ivory HunterThe Last Ivory Hunter
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $16.29

Customer Review:
This should stand as one of Capstick's better offerings as a researcher and author. Without question, this is a good book from start to finish. The man who inspired the project, Walter Johnson, was a seventy-year throwback from the golden days of African hunting when survival was a daily struggle.... more info

8.Death in a Lonely Land: More Hunting, Fishing, and Shooting on Five ContinentsDeath in a Lonely Land: More Hunting, Fishing, and Shooting on Five Continents
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
First off I must admit that I've never shot anything bigger than a crow. And dragonflies, like Capstick.
But Capstick's yarns are ripping. The hunting stories make you feel as if you've actually been there.
The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that my interest is more in... more info

9.Safari: The Last AdventureSafari: The Last Adventure
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
I am typically a big Capstick fan. I usually enjoy his interesting and often humorous look into circumstance and culture so far removed from most of us, but this title really misses the mark.
The information regarding safari planning and contacts is too dated to be useful. It is missing many... more info

10.Peter Capstick s Africa: A Return To The Long GrassPeter Capstick's Africa: A Return To The Long Grass
from St. Martin's Press
Price: $23.10

Customer Review:
This book accounts for Peter Capstick's time during a rolling one month Safari on the open plains and inland delta's of south-central Africa. Well before this particular title went to print I was aware of Capstick's fondness to create length and dramatic effect, but I still found myself marveling at... more info
