Mark Hampton has given the world of handgun hunting a good shot in the arm with his latest book "Handguns in Wild Places: Images of Adventure". Mark is no stranger to publishing companies with his two other books "Addicted to Altitude" and "Handgun Hunting" and his latest work is unique in that it features 26 different handgun hunters, including four women, with photos and a short bio of the trophies they have taken with their handguns. What you get with Mark`s book is exactly what the title say`s: "Handguns in Wild Places: Images of Adventure"...

HANDGUNS IN WILD PLACES features a strong representation of handgun hunters using a wide variety of handguns on five continents. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this book is full of successful stories from over 200 photos. Game taken from prairie dogs to elephant including a lot of challenging hunts is among the adventurous exploits showcased in this unique book. This is a non-traditional publication in the sense it features photos and captions only. Whether you’re a seasoned expert or just thinking about handgun hunting – this book is for you. You may even recognize some nefarious characters in the fray.
Books are available for $23 which covers shipping. Send check or MO to Mark Hampton, P.O. Box 108, Summersville, MO 65571.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Best of Hunting,
Mark Hampton

Mark,
Looks like a great book, I'll be sending for a copy. I do have a few questions for you regarding publishing though.. I've done some writing myself this last year gone by and am in search of a publisher to take my-own book to print. I am (however) having no luck at all, 8 separate printers have turned me down & fallen through, and I'm about out of ideas with everything now moved to the back burner!
If you would be willing, please pm me, maybe we could talk.

If you would be willing, please pm me, maybe we could talk. A gun book? So to speak Max.. it's not directly & 100% a hunting or firearms book, but by and large involves firearms beginning to end. It's a 125 year history tied to myself and my family's best untold stories between log camps & early pioneer time/ and frontier land-disputes beginning during that rich 1890's-era, then goes on into army-times, and about cattle, ranching & horses, fur trade days, hunting & trapping both back then and now as well... throughout it is mention and inclusion of the guns used & carried, both long-gun and six pistols.. by my ancestors, family long gone & obviously about the ones I currently continue to use for the same reasons as well. I really do hate to put my own writing in the same sentence as to what Elmer's Hell I was there book is placed; (that would be as if I was placing my story to walk with a sheer giant) ... but to a degree it can probably be compared very similarly to a "Hell I was there" style. That be about the best description I can give, mine is just on a slightly smaller scale. I've got roughly 20-25,000 words plus pictures & caption on top'a that-- like I said though, just short a printer to take it to ink My local resources are pretty well tapped out for making it go beyond a USB stick, so maybe you guys could lend a hand or point me in the right direction. I'd sure appreciate it.

This is an outstanding book! Received my copy in the mail yesterday & just looking at the back cover of Mark & seeing that he's made 29 hunts to Africa, 25 hunts in Asia, plus all of his hunts in North America is worth the price of the book! Many, many unique hunts from hand gunners in every corner of the world, a truly great book. I just keep picking it up & thumbing through the pages, thanks Mark for an outstanding book.
Dick
