Summary of The Gigantic Book of Hunting Stories
?Years of experience and a keen intelligence make Jay Cassell uniquely positioned to survey the wide field of hunting literature, old and new, and present the very finest examples of it.??Thomas McIntyre, author of Seasons & Days: A Hunting Life and editor of Wild and Fair: Tales of Hunting Big Game in North America.
This volume has something for everyone who hunts, be they rabbit hunters in the deep South, Cape buffalo hunters in the African bush, or white-tailed deer hunters in the woods of North America. Its selections celebrate hunting for big game, small game, waterfowl, upland birds, turkeys, African and Asian game, and much more. Readers will find many of their favorite writers represented here, along with authors who have penned inspired pieces that few have read, until now. The book has been put together in keeping with the spirit and philosophy of Theodore Roosevelt, our twenty-sixth president, who not only believed in the preservation of our wildlife and natural resources, but in the importance of hunting to the fabric of American life. Part of the proceeds from this book will go to the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, a coalition of organizations and individual grassroots partners working together to preserve the traditions of hunting and fishing. 119 black-and-white illustrationsHunting Books
