Harry Selby-good old times

I was introduced to Ruark as a small boy after reading the Old Man and the Boy. In my quest to read everything Ruark, I was introduced to the notion of Africa in the Horn of the Hunter and Harry Selby. While I never got to meet Harry Selby personally, I did correspond with him prior to his death and found him to be a gracious Gentleman that took the time to answer my questions and freely share his stories that fueled my desire to make it to Africa as soon as I could get there. In my mind, he is one of the most notable of any of the hunters, of any race, to trek the African continent.

I hunted elephant with Luke Samaris in 2005. It was my fourth safari and I tell you he is a fine gentleman the best. I got the opportunity to meet Patty Curtis, although never hunted with him but enjoyed our conversation around our tent in the Selous. Very sad for a tough guy to leave this world the way he did. Let’s pray the murderers are caught. I hope to see Luke in Nashville.
