Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Here is a collection of deer-hunting stories from one of the nation's most popular outdoor writers. Jerome B. Robinson's tales of adventure in pursuit of whitetail and mule deer, caribou, moose, and elk were regular features in Sports Afield magazine for more than twenty years, and have been featured in Field & Stream for more than a decade now. Whether he is hunting near his Northwoods log cabin, out of a tent camp in remote country, or joining up with traditional Native hunters in the remote far North, Robinson's stories make readers want to be there, hunting with him. The author possesses an unusual ability to blend mood and atmosphere with technical instruction and philosophy. He takes readers along on his adventures, letting them see and smell the country, while passing along essential information about animal habits and habitat, and hunting methods such as stillhunting, stalking, rattling, and calling. Robinson's reverence for the animals he hunts is evident throughout. (61/4 X 91/4, 236 pages, color photos)

This review is from: In the Deer Woods (Hardcover)

This book is a quick read with some interesting stories along the way. For the most part the author avoids the "10 ways to get your buck" mantra prevelant in so many hunting books. Instead, the author relates stories of his own hunting adventures. I found his tales of moose and caribou hunting in the far north to be the highlight of the book.
