the world’s greatest hunting stories

As William Faulkner has so eloquently written, ＂The past is never dead. It’s not even past.＂ In this collection, hunting stories by distinguished writers bring to printed pages the days afield they enjoyed in world-wide locations in days long past. Prose vivid and timeless captures the drama and emotions experienced in hunts for deer, as well as big game and birds in locations ranging from the Rocky Mountains to Britian’s moors to African plains.

These are enduring tales that have passed the test of time and have attracted generations of readers. From moments of great danger to campsite bliss, the stories have the intensity of real life.
