The stories that make up Autumn Passages are true Duck Hunting Classics. The book takes you through time providing insights from the earliest market hunting days to the rejuvination of duck hunting in modern times. The only thing more enjoyable than curling up with this book in front of a fire is living the stories yourself in a favorite duck blind.

Autumn Passages is a collection of short stories that span the last 100 years. Authors include Fred Kimble, Gordon MacQuarrie, Jimmy Robinson, Robert Ruark, Gene Hill and Zack Taylor. Any one who is a duck hunter will be touched by any one of the short stories contained in this book. The collection as a whole should be required reading for any waterfowler. It would be hard to find a better collection of stories.

Buying this book also helps support Ducks Unlimited.

This book spans a century of waterfowling tales. It is amazing to begin your journey in time when the skies were clouded over by magnificent flocks all the way to the present. Since it is a treasury by many authors from many areas around the country from different time periods, the reader is able to see many different waterfowling scenarios. After reading this book, it has made me want to buy the works of many authors included in it!

This book was a very relaxing and fufilling history of the duck hunting experiences we all have had. There were many stories which brought back memories of my own personal experiences I have had with close friends and family.
