"Longbow: A Hunting Life" - Special Club price!
« on: January 02, 2013, 10:55:00 AM »


  Read Below for Special Club Pricing/Offers!  
Thank You, Tradgang! Karen and I woke up this morning to find that (at least for now) our book "Longbow: A Hunting Life" is #1 on Amazon's Kindle (e-Book) Archery list! We know that TradGang Members were a great part of that success. Here's what folks have been saying!

"One of the absolute best reads I've had my hands on in outdoor writing. Different, heart touching, a can't-put-it-down read. Both thumbs up!" David Mitchell

"One of the best written books I've read in a LONG time. While this is a hunting book  ... it is much more than that. Exceptionally well done." Terry Receveur

"All I can say is Wow!! Great writing. Couldn't put it down once I started. I have always considered Dr. Thomas as the standard for outdoor writers. Your book will sit comfortably on the canoe book shelf right next to his. Your style is refreshing and honest. Thank You." Brian Thibodeau

"Campbell is the needle, the reader is the thread. Prepare to be woven through a complex fabric of life, love, loss, and retribution on a globe trotting journey." David Tetzlaff

"This is a masterfully written book by one of traditional archery's great adventurers." Don Davis

We have been working with club representatives to provide books for banquet and shoot prizes at reduced rates, just shoot me a message. Here's 2 Special Offers to consider:
  Special Offer #1:: buy 10 books for your club at $15 each (plus bulk shipping), and we will donate $50 to your club!
  Special Offer #2!  if you are a club rep and buy a book for yourself at retail ($19), we'll send you another one endorsed to the club at no charge for your shoot/Banquet.
At this point we have given away well over 150 books, one way or another, to clubs, soldiers, folks who just couldn't pay, etc. And last, for any of you who wish to read "Longbow" in the new year, the e-book is $8.95 on Amazon.com, and the paperback is still on sale, signed and endorsed by Karen and me, for $14.99 (for another two weeks, then it goes back to $19) at  www.campbellsquest.com.  
  Thanks Again! - Jay and Karen Campbell

Taught Jay everything I know about bowhunting hogs....which is don't be in between where a charging hog is and where it wants to be. Karen, being the smarter Campbell understood. Jay, of course, wanted to test the theory.

Bought the paperback as a Christmas present for my dad from Amazon.  He's looking forward to reading it.  I plan on buying the Kindle version for my iPad (via the Kindle app) once I finish Undaunted Courage...may be awhile!

Don, I prefer to think of myself as the hormonal Campbell, while Karen is cerebral. By the time Karen has thought it through, I'm already injured. :-)

Nicholas, don't rush "Undaunted Courage." Outstanding read. Then get Ambrose's "Custer and Crazy Horse". Now THAT's writing. :-) - Jay

actually just finished your book last night Jay.  It was good reading.  I never really contemplated hunting in Florida but with the way you write about it, makes me want to book a flight for some swamp stompin'  :)

Thanks! Yep, you have to come down and try it! Here's a picture of Karen Campbell, her tracking Jack Russell, Widget, and two pigs she took with her longbow in the space of a half hour! We were heading to the store from our hunting lease when she saw the sounder of hogs, jumped out of the truck, and disappeared into the woods. Pig hunting is a ball! - Jay  www.campbellsquest.com

Mark, I just called out to the kitchen: "Hey Karen, Bowmarks thinks you're young!"  She's still laughing. :-) - Jay

Thank you all, very much, for the kind words. We're on Facebook, where we post images and updates every day. Here is a great shot of Karen and Rich King, our hunting companion on Melville Island, and his great buffalo. We're also making progress on the novel, Archer's Paradox! Hope to have that out at the end of 2013.  - Jay and Karen  www.campbellsquest.com  Our new e book is on Amazon, with over 55 color pictures.    :archer:
