Craig Boddington is one of the few hunters who has successfully hunted each of the major varieties and most of the subspecies of the nine spiral-horned antelope of Africa. From the dry Central African savannas inhabited with Isoberlinia trees that are the favorite food of the giant eland to the dense scrublands of South Africa's Cape that are the habitat of the bushbuck, there has never been a more desirable group of antelope than the Magnificent Nine. It contains 9 original line drawings by Joe Vance, especially commissioned for this book. The book also contains 9 color maps showing detailed distribution of all spiral horned antelope species and subspecies. Only 1,250 copies were issued.
