Peter Hamilton Flack is a lawyer by training, a businessman by profession, a conservationist out of conviction and a passionate hunter since a small boy.

He studied and worked as a corporate lawyer in the UK, USA and South Africa. In his mid thirties he changed careers and became the CEO of the largest mining contracting company in Africa and, ten years later, accepted an offer to lead one of the world’s largest gold mining groups. After retiring from mining, he and two partners formed what was to become the leading turnaround company in Africa.

Throughout this time Peter has been passionate about wildlife and wildlife habitats. This passion has found form in the conversion of an eroded and bankrupt goat farm into a model working game ranch, his eight books, seven films, hundreds of magazine articles and many hunting trips to some 15 African countries.

Peter is an active life member of hunting and conservation organisations on three continents and a trustee of WWF Southern Africa. He has been happily married to Jane for 40 years and they are the proud parents of Lisa, Troydon (son-in-law), Richard and Eileen (daughter-in-law).
