Dangerous Game Hunters - Top Book Recommends?

Hi all, looking for a couple of good book recommendations that focus specifically on hunting dangerous game. Not so much safari experiences, travel tales, or hunting Africa in general, but books sharing genuine, personal experiences hunting dangerous game. The actual hunt, logistics, dangers, etc - whether memoirs or instructional.

I've just picked up a set of Jim Corbett's books - who else would you recommend?
As far as the actual hunting of dangerous game Col. Corbetts books are superb and very detailed. What could be more dangerous to hunt than man eating great cats in a dense cover environment. J.A. Hunters books are also wonderful.
 
Anything by Selous, Roosevelt's African Safari, Bell, Corbett,. . . are all great foundational books. If you start there, perhaps even in that order you will branch out into sub-specialty books. There are great books on buffs, leopards, lions, etc. Enjoy.
