Hero Tales is a collection of twenty-six stories that convey lessons of courage and self-sacrifice without preaching. These stories were instrumental in lionizing such men as Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, and George Rogers Clark in the American mind.
Peter Hathaway Capstick, former Wall Street stockbroker turned professional adventurer, has been critically acclaimed as the successor to Hemingway and Ruark in African hunting literature. After hunting in Central and South America, Capstick went to Africa in 1968, where the New Jersey-born writer continues to live. He has held professional hunting licenses in four countries, and served as a game officer. He has written seven exciting books on Africa, including ""Death in the Long Grass,"" ""Peter Capstick's Africa,"" and ""The Last Ivory Hunter: The Saga of Wally Johnson,"" He's also featured in an award-winning safari video and audio tapes.
