In A Year in the Life of an American Sportsman, Ken Baxter captures the essence of what "enjoying the great outdoors" can mean to each of us. By sharing a year's adventures and corresponding stories from his youth in a different era and geographic area, Ken provides insight into the comical experiences, benefits, and camaraderie that are shared by all hunting and fishing enthusiasts. It answers the question regularly posed to hunters and fishermen everywhere, "Why do you do it?"
Imagine A River Runs Through It seen through the eyes of Dave Barry and you'll get an idea of Rich Tosches' sharp-eyed reflections on the art, hobby, and obsession of fly fishing. Armed with a rod, a pen, and an eccentric sense of humor, Pulitzer Prize-nominated sportswriter Rich Tosches headed for the Grand Teton Mountains, site of the World Fly Fishing Championship, and cast a keen eye on his fellow trollers from all over the globe. This encounter-and many others during a lifetime dedicated to the pursuit of fly fishing -are captured in a side-splitting collection of observations on every angle-and angler-of one of America's favorite pastimes.
"Praised as "one of the seminal works in conservation history" by historian Hal Rothman, Reiger's book continues to be essential reading for all concerned with how earlier Americans regarded the land, demonstrating even to those who oppose hunting that they share with sportsmen and sportswomen an awareness and appreciation of our fragile environment."--Jacket.
