The Dark Continent... made legendary by the men and their weapons who roamed its vast wilderness. Many would prove to be inadequate, falling short of the mark. But for a select few - men and weapons - history would record them as something special. Classic African Cartridges is a series of articles penned by well known authors Ganyana and Charlie Haley, documenting the rise of eleven classics such as the 9.3 Mauser, .404 Jeffery, .303 British, .375 H&H Magnum, 6.5x54 Mannlicher-Schoenauer, The .577/450 Martini-Henry and even the 4-bore, and the circumstances surrounding their rise to prominence. Compiled from almost two decades of material published in the African Hunter magazine, this publication is a must read. Ganyana is a firearms and ballistics fanatic. A former senior ecologist with the National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority with a doctorate in biology and a licensed professional hunter, his years spent in the field have resulted in volumes of data collected. Charlie Haley too, is a gun fanatic. Retiring after over twenty years' service as police CID Detective Superintendent Charlie was formerly officer commanding the Zimbabwe forensics ballistics laboratory and is widely regarded as one of the premier African experts on just about anything to do with firearms. He currently serves on the committee of the Zimbabwe Shooting Sport Federation as Chief Instructor, and is the Chief Training Officer for the Zimbabwe Professional Hunter's and Guide's Association. He has written widely for African Hunter magazine over the past two decades.
