Horn of the Hunter and Death in the Long Grass are tied for first in my opinion. They really stir up the juices to hunt Africa.
I have all of Capstick's books, but they are best viewed as Africa of yesteryear.
African Hunter II - Loads of relatively current information on Africa today.
Safari Rifles II by Craig Boddington, useful information, although he suggests you may be under-gunned for the big stuff short of towing around a 155mm howitzer. Still, his theme of simplifying your hunt by bringing only 1-2 guns and using a gun big enough for the largest game you plan on hunting, with the ability to get the bullet into the vitals from tricky shot presentations makes sense in my view.
Another extremely useful book is Perfect Shot Placement on African Big Game by Kevin "Doctari" Robertson should be studied in-depth by anyone who hunts (or dreams of hunting) Africa. I believe there is a second edition of this book out as well as pocket size editions to carry with you on your hunt.
