5.0 out of 5 stars Set amid the natural beauty of Montana and Idaho, April 10, 2002

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A High, Lonesome Call (Hardcover)

Set amid the natural beauty of Montana and Idaho, A High, Lonesome Call: One Man, Two Bird Dogs, And The Open Road That Is Their Answer by sportswriter Robert Holthouse is a superbly written novel of searching, self-reflection, and respect for wild grandeur. Drawing upon autobiographical experience, Holthouser wonderfully captures the essence of the hunt and the bond between a man and his faithful canine companions. A thoughtful, serious, soul-deepening read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gun Dog Chronicles, September 21, 2001

R.L.Humphries - See all my reviews

This review is from: A High, Lonesome Call (Hardcover)

You have to be interested in the subject, but, then again, maybe you do not. This is a great dog and hunting book. It is also one of the best written books of any I have read, and I have read a lot of the different genres. Read it and see if you don't agree.

5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite, June 6, 2008

Matthew Gordon (oregon,usa) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: A High, Lonesome Call (Hardcover)

This book was absolutely genius. I was heartbroken when I finished it, and felt like I could let it go on forever without getting tired of it. I felt like I was riding/hunting right along with this trio and couldn't get enough of the true life stories. The tales seem real and not contrived like many other writers that I've read. This book was much more than just about bird hunting but included life's crappy moments and some of the most humorous. Wonderful writer.
