Default Good Book on Hunting?

I know there are a lot of good sites that offer various and rich information about hunting but when I'm entering a new field I need to learn about I usually prefer a good book as an opener.

Anything by the late Jack O'Connor.
Grandpa is right about Ted Trueblood.

Hi...


"Hunting" is a very all-encompassing word. You have big game; small game; varments; waterfowl; furbearers; land birds. Shotgun? Rifle? Pistol? Long, recurve or compound bow? Cross bow? And these are just some of the many examples.

Then there is game processing...how to get it ready to cook, or for storage.

A book can be a good starting point. I don't think I've ever seen any one book that covered the points mentioned above, though There are a lot of hunting magazines on the market. Acquainting yourself with some of them can give you some more insight into hunting.


NOTE:

"Pathfinder", who is now posting on this forum, is NOT Pathfinder1, which is me...!!

Jack O'conner wrote good stuff. Another is "Ted" Trueblood. Expert on both hunting and fishing and an excellent writer.
