Each copy of this book comes individually signed by Davey Hughes.
"Perhaps one of the best hunting adventure books ever written," Untamed is the long-awaited autobiography from the man who brought the world Swazi clothing - Mr. Davey Hughes. Known by many for his appearances in TV's Border Patrol - where he can be seen returning from his hunting adventures complete with furs, spurs and exotic penis bones - Davey is most famous for creating the Swazi brand, a company with deep roots in Davey's homeland of New Zealand.
From the publisher: He’s hunted Caribou in the Arctic Circle, grizzlies in Alaska and buffalo in Tanzania. He’s the bane of Customs officials’ lives, has run the gruelling Coast to Coast, and is the owner of the highly-successful Swazi outdoor clothing label; he’s a passionate conservationist and he sure knows how to spin a yarn or two. Davey Hughes - aka the Swazi Man - is many things, but one thing he’s most certainly not is conventional.
As a kid in Wainuiomata, he spent the weekends in the hills going after pigs and possums. But there’s more to the Swazi Man than hunting and a taste for adventure. He and his wife Maggie have built an outdoor clothing empire on their proudly made-in-New Zealand ‘Swazi’ brand; he funds a Siberian tiger conservation campaign; and he wants to get kids into our back-country having the roughing-it adventures that kick-started his remarkable life.
In this rollicking read, Davey shares his hunting tips, his scariest adventures, his favourite camp-cooking recipes and his poems. He even tells you how to skin a mountain lion — handy should you ever meet one! Davey lives life to the full, but what underpins all of this is his absolute love of New Zealand: “It’s about family, it’s about business and it’s about the people of this country.”
Now you can sit back in the safety of your own home and read how to fend off charging grizzlies and desperate, devious elephant poachers; or hear Davey's philosophy on running his family and business while enjoying his life to the max - it's all here in Untamed!
