'Any book that reignites one's own passion and love for the countryside and the outdoor pursuits we enjoy is worth reading... I have already read this book twice and I will certainly read it again. I really can't recommend it highly enough.' Marcus Janssen, Fieldsports Magazine 'This is one helluva book...' Tony Orman, NZ Hunting and Wildlife Peter Ryan's writing and images have been published in books and magazines around the world and in Wild South he writes about the great hunting and angling destinations of southern Africa, New Zealand, Australia, South America and more. These are big places and Peter Ryan covers big ground - from scrabbling around dizzy mountain heights after elusive deer; encounters with buffalo, elephants, lions and rabid hyenas; to reflections on the qualities of gun dogs, gun stocks and hunters themselves; or just the pure pleasure of fishing peaceful back-country lakes and rivers.
