John’s booth at DSC.
Lynn Everts is working books out of Johnny’s booth at SCI, as John will be in the Rigby booth for SCI.

Xi finished the book today. It is a good read all the way through. Thanks for the feedback Jim! John sold out of books at SCI (despite what seemed like a meager turn out) and then brought twice the number of books to DSC. When I left the show Saturday afternoon, he was on his way to selling out again. Every time I went by his booth it seemed like someone was buying a book and getting it signed. John probably has cramps in his right hand tonight...and is glad for it!

Update: While at DSC I left my remaining books with John as he was at risk of running out. Not only did all of John's copies sell, my books also sold! It appears there may need to be a second printing of the soft cover! This is great news. Thanks to all who purchased books and gave reviews.

Reviving this thread to make a couple points....
1. I have three soft cover and one hard cover still available.
2. A framable print is in the works, of the cover photo used for the book...the iconic river crossing picture that just reeks of hard-core African hunting. There will be a limited run of numbered and signed copies..I think about 200 but don't quote me. They will be available at DSC this coming January and will also be available at some point via mail...likely after DSC. Pricing is being worked out. The number I have heard left me thinking they will sell out quickly! This will be a fairly large print. I saw a picture of John holding one up and it appears to be about 24" tall and 30" wide? Not a small print...
3. I am wheels-up August 12 to travel to the BVC to spend 12 days with John and his team. I hope I can manage to not get fired from my job these next two weeks. I am like a little kid waiting for Christmas.

Have a great trip. Cape Buffalo is primary goal. If/when I have a buffalo in the salt, we will chase PG. I would love to get an old pig of a Livingstone Eland. A Hyena would be cool. I might even hunt a second buff if available...especially and old, nasty busted up bull.

I just sold my last hardcover limited edition. I will be carrying it to the BVC next week for a personal inscription by John.
I have an email in to the U.S. distributor to see if there are any more to be had.
To anyone who PMs me - I won't be back in the States until the end of the month.
