The Great New Orleans Gun Grab - Descent Into Anarchy (Book)
Review of The Great New Orleans Gun Grab - Descent Into Anarchy book, by Gordon Hutchinson and Todd Masson. After hurricane Katrina battered the Gulf Coasts of Mississippi and Louisiana, New Orleans became rife with law enforcement officers stealing guns and abusing private law-abiding citizens, leaving them defenseless and in some cases seriously injured. Review of The Quest and the Quarry hunting book, by Gordon Hutchinson
The Quest and the Quarry is one heck of a unique little book. You won't find its like anywhere that I've looked, and I am a voracious reader. From beginning to end, you won't know what to expect around the next bend, and by the time you've finished the book you will be in love with the people and the way of life it depicts. I was, anyway. Hunter or not, this is a great book that illustrates many things, not the least of which is the hunter's deep respect for the animals he - or she - hunts. Review - The Complete Venison Cookbook
Hunting Product Review - The Complete Venison Cookbook, by Harold W. Webster, Jr. High Performance Muzzleloading Big Game Rifles by Toby Bridges - Book Review
Review of High Performance Muzzleloading Big Game Rifles book by Toby Bridges. Book Review - A View From a Tall Hill: Robert Ruark in Africa
Book Review - A View From a Tall Hill: Robert Ruark in Africa, by Terry Wieland. This book is full of good info for Ruark fans, but is repetitious and out-of-sync, as well as providing much unnecessary information. Horn of the Hunter, by Robert Ruark
The story of the author's first African Safari, which he took with his wife. It was the beginning of a relationship between Ruark and Africa that would last the rest of his life, and bring out the best in Robert Ruark's writing. Hunting's Best Short Stories
While I myself don't think all of them are "hunting's best," these short stories did hold my attention, which ain't always easy to do. Follow the above link to the review for more details. Ken Waters' Pet Loads
This is one of the most complete reference works you'll ever find for cartridge and load information for many different cartridges. Waters brings all the data down to Earth with his straight-talking manner. Smoke Follows Beauty, by Brian Ames
This collection of short stories is probably better left unread... follow the link to read why I think so. The Lost Classics of Robert Ruark
These Lost Classics (mainly old magazine articles and insightful texts) are extremely entertaining and enlightening. I recommend reading this book immediately prior to Horn of the Hunter, as I did this and was immensely pleased. The Old Man and the Boy, by Robert Ruark
The best book on American hunting and fishing I've ever read. If common sense, nature and ethics interest you, this book is one you don't want to miss! The Old Man's Boy Grows Older, by Robert Ruark
More great Ruark - on hunting, his grandfather, and life in general. Trophy Whitetails of Illinois
This book is more than just a state trophy listing, this book also covers such things as habitat improvement and hunting trophy whitetails. Venison Cookbook & HeaterMeals Plus
These two culinary products are worthy of mention, to be sure. Good stuff for hunters and those who like good food. White Death, by Erno Rossi
Check out this book about the infamous blizzard which hit the USA and Canada simultaneously in 1977. You may learn some good stuff about staying alive in nasty weather, and I think you'll be entertained, too. |
