Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

These are the magazine stories that Ruark wrote in the 1950s and 1960s, but were never published in book form. Some of these stories will make you laugh outloud while others will bring a tear to the eye of even the toughest disposition. Ruark was one of America's most enduring writers whose hunting and outdoor stories are timeless. His work transcends generations, and his words delight readers regardless of age. The Lost Classics will have you reminiscing of bygone days while you read about "The Old Man and the Boy, "Stories from Down Home," "The Boy Expands His Horizons," and "Papa Hemingway." The final section includes stories that Ruark wrote about himself and is entitled "Ruark on Ruark." Includes a lengthy biographical sketch by Dr. Jim Casada as well as a detailed bibliographical appendix on all of Ruark's books and papers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Some of Ruark's best pieces., January 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lost Classics (Hardcover)
An excellent composition of some of Ruark's best work, ignored by other editors. It is a welcome addition to the library of any hunter, especially those of us who appreciate Ruark's genius.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lost classics, not lost, you just need to read to remember, March 18, 2006

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Lost Classics (Hardcover)
It was written well before I was born and I felt like I had walked some of those same hills, and found some of those same gentleman quail except on the west coast in my youth. A must for those cool nights with a warm fire and a dog at your feet. Share, order two, mail a copy to a friend and let them, Enjoy.........
