I've never been on an African safari, but I've known several outdoor writers who have. They all concur that those who hunt dangerous big-game animals represent a breed apart. They delight in the challenge of the hunt, of course, but they relish equally the companionships that are formed along the way, especially among their guides and trackers. Dr. Jospeh Greenfield Jr. has experienced all of this and more. In addition to hunting big in Africa, he has long been an avid hunter of quail, as evidenced by his recently published book on that subject, A Quail Hunter's Odyssey. I first met Joe Greenfield a few years ago in the course of editing two articles, taken from his book on quail hunting, in the Shooter's Bible. His accounts of chasing these elusive birds all afforded a different dimension to Joe's life as a hunter. An engaging sense of humor emerges in those pages, an element that has doubtless served him well in the past.
