Summary: More than a book on hunting
Comment: The beautiful writing in "Love of the Hunt," does for me what the writing of my long-time favorite outdoor author, Sigurd Olson does. Olson wrote extensively of his times in "The Boundary Waters" of Minnesota and Canada and pulled me North with him on many a cold winter night of reading. John Winsor does that. He takes me on his "magic carpet" to feel with him in his adventures in the West and Artic, his unique sense of nature as a spiritual quest. The chapter, "Eulogy for a Bear" captures all the book. If you can read this chapter without tears, you're a better man than I am. Buy and read this one...and give it as a gift to your special friends.

Summary: Using the Hunt to Hunt for Oneself
Comment: The author has written a series of short stories that use the hunt as a metaphor for looking for meaning in life. He succeeded in making me laugh out loud, shed some tears, and think about the meaning of my own life. What more can one ask from a book or a storyteller? Along the way he upsets some prejudicial and stereotypical views of hunting and hunters--reinforces a few as well. Altogether a good read.

Summary: I laughed and I cried
Comment: This book is for all people who love the wilderness. I laughed and I cried. I found this book to be extremely insightful about one mans draw to the wilderness and the animals that reside in it. Not being a hunter myself I learned the authors profound respect for the creatures that he hunted and gave my new insight on hunting. I highly recommend this book for all lovers of the out doors.
