4.0 out of 5 stars Waterfowling Pictorial, October 3, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Dabblers & Divers: A Duck Hunter's Book (Hardcover)

Dabblers & Divers: A duck hunters book - A pictorial of waterfowling with one line quotes from some of waterfowling's greatest shooters and writers like Steve Smith, Gordon MacQuarrie, Archibald Rutledge, George Bird Grinnell, Michael McIntosh, and others.

The photographs are excellent and depict waterfowling in its purest form.

The quotes will provoke thought and emotion.

Warning - This is not a "how to" book.
