One with the Wilderness- book
« on: January 25, 2009, 05:35:00 PM »
Many folks have been asking about my new book “One withthe Wilderness” (Passions of a Solo Bowhunter). I should get them from hard cover this week, Jan. 29th. I'm taking credit card and check orders now at  www.brothersofthebow.com  (TG sponsor). I plan to stamp, number, and autograph the first 100 copies. So there is still time to get one of those if you place your order. You can also e-mail me directly at [email protected] for additional information.

 I hope to have them at Trad Bowhunters Expo. in Kalamazoo on Friday if they arrive in time, if not I will have them at Mich. Trad  Bowhunters Banquet, Comptons, and United Bowhunters of Illinois. I may be at Wisconsin. Trad Archers banquet as well. The book is 334 pages hard cover with full color images throughout. Cost $30 + $7 S&H

There are three sections. In the first section I talk about gaining experience and confidence while hunting many game species in a solitary and group setting. Section 2 is about my “Solo Spirit”, and many wilderness hunts are shared. In section 3 I talk about some of the people and events that have inspired me. I will close with a portion of the press release.

 One With The Wilderness (Passions of a Solo Bowhunter) is a 334 page hardcover keepsake. Join Mike on his adventures as he presents the nostalgic feel of the wilderness enriched with full color photographs throughout. Share in his journey toward self-reliance by hunting whitetails, mule deer, elk, moose, caribou, bear, coyotes, hogs, and nilgai. The solo spirit will stir your soul as you become part of the natural world of Alaska, the Rocky Mountains, and the Midwest. Experience the people and events which inspired the author to the realization that even in solitude, we are never truly alone.
 Thank you for your interest, Mike

Sounds like a good read Mike.  If you dont have them in time for Kzoo next week I will be sure to pick one up at the MTB Banquet.

I have a hunch, that my wife will order me one for my birthday...since I just took her over to the screen and showed her what I WANT, and HOW to get it!  :D    :D    :D  

I love surprises!

I hope there are instructions in there on how to carry two huge bucks at the same time.   :thumbsup:  

Congrats Mike Mitten.

Mike,

If there was a way to put #99 aside for me, that's the one I want to be sure to buy...it will match my Paul Schafer print...


Guys--I've read most of this book already; I was fortunate to be able to do some of the proofreading for Mike.  I read a LOT of hunting stuff and this is like nothing else I have ever digested.  It is excellent; even the most serious and seasoned hunter will learn from it.  It is hard to explain, but you can almost feel the hunts and the passion Mike has for the wild.

Hope I got my order in soon enough!

Congrats on building a hunting biography that is book worthy.  I'm sure it will be a classic.

I too have had the privilege to read most of the draft manuscript of this book. Itss going to be very special for sure. Mike has a way with words. I'm proud to have been a little part of this and more proud to be his friend.
  On a related note, I asked him about the font used on the front cover. Its called "Bleeding Cowboy." Thats cool enough, although I doubt we'll ever see a font named "Bleeding Cowgirl." Or "Bleeding Indian" for that matter! :>)

Just my kind of bowhunting book, and my birthday is coming up, so like Bonebuster I'll save my wife some trouble and order one now!

G'day Gene or Mike,

Could you work-out what the shipping price would be to Australia?

Thanks,

Look forward to reading it!

Thanks for all of the enthusiasm guys. I don’t know what else to say other than I tried my best. I hope to have the books very soon and quite possibly by this weekend, but every thing is out of my hands right now. Thanks, Mike

Get ready guys... you are in for a real treat with this book. Mike's personality is just the right combination of macho and romance of the hunt. But more importantly, he has the ability of putting it all into words we can all relate to. Mark my words... you're gonna love it. BW
