The good stuff

The whole transaction here was done to perfection. I'd deal with the folks who neatly wrapped and quickly sent this book to me again. Very much appreciated.
Even a city boy will love this collection
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I was raised in the city, with almost no exposure to fishing and hunting. (Brooklyn c. 1975, the only shooting I knew was an occasional gun shot outside my apartment building in the middle of the night.) For a city boy like me, this book was a wonderful introduction into love of outdoors through hunting and fishing. This collection contains over 50 stories from Field & Stream, ranging from 3-12 pages. Nature, calm or threatening, is a protagonist in every story. We sense how much the early 20th century landscape has been overrun by human sprawl. There are many other wonderful themes in this collection - courage, fear, lost and found friendship. Among my favorites were the handful of stories about old hunters and their beloved dogs. This book will transport you to another era - one very much worth traveling to. My only critique is women rarely appear in these pages, reflecting a strongly male-oriented editorial hand.
A Must-Have Outdoors Book.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 28 years ago
Of all the books I've gotten as a gift throught the years, this was the most pleasant find. The book has some terrific short stories from Field & Stream, with great adventures of all aspects of the outdoors. It also has classic illustrations of old F & S covers. I'd recommend this as a must have for any outdoorsman's library.
