Been eyeing this book for two years. It sounds like a great read. Anyone got any reviews for it?

It is much more than hunting stories, although there are some real good ones.  There is a real honest and open portrayal of some aspects of the author's life that is a bit unusual in hunting books.  You get the feeling that he is sharing some personal experiences and feelings with a good friend and that for him the hunting is never separated from other life experiences.  I really enjoyed the book and bought copies to give to friends.  You won't go wrong with this one.
