There are many STRONG opinions about his videos.

I will say I have met with Mark on several occasions, both in the States, and in Tanzania. I have never hunted with him but have enjoyed our conversations and can say say generally he knows his stuff.

The sensationalism of his videos has made him money and caused him headaches. I've heard and read of all manner of allegations against him and am at a lost to figure what is legit and what is brought by his enemies in order to bring him down. That sort of intrigue is real in Africa and in the safari business.

What is the title of his new book? If it is "Fear No Death" then that book was published in 2008.

I have it and I can say that it has nice pictures and Mark gives good info on double rifles but otherwise...meh.
