Geoffrey Household has also long been one of my favorites and that one is one of his best along with Rogue Male. I consider him to have been one of the finest older UK novelists along with John Buchan (The Thirty-Nine Steps), James S. Rand (Run For the Trees), Neville Shute (On the Beach, In the Wet) and John Masters (Bhowani Junction) among others. These authors are not necessarily gun cognoscenti as such but rather are superlative storytellers, and some of their writings deal with shooting. Rand especially is worth reading for his depictions of Africa's Lado Enclave area, its hunting and its relative lawlessness.
