Huntin porn and HT!!!

Serious side I have been focused on upland birds since I am doing some of them for the first time next year.

These days I try to start each day with

 

[David58]

Shelby Foote's "The Civil War." Halfway through volume 2, so only about 2000 pages to go..

 

[DanWyo]

Not sure if it’s been up yet, but Alaska’s Wolf Man (the Frank Glaser story)

 

[Jbotto]

Had a long hiatus of reading books. My wife bought me Gary Noesner’s Stalling For Time for Christmas. Started it last night and didn’t put it down for 55 pages before my eyes got too tired

 

[MarvB]

Just finished a couple of Alex Bledsoe’s books on the Tufa hill people. Got me looking into the music a bit as well....

 

[Artemis.Agrotera]

Currently on The Outsider by Stephen King and Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry. Lonesome Dove I only picked up because of all of the glowing reviews here. I'm not generally interested in a Western, but it's great so far.

I've recently finished NOS4A2 by Joe Hill, Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain, and The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. Good, good-ish, and ok.

This was little basic for someone that had their first elk bowhunt in 1996 that said I still got some tidbits from it.
Definitely recommend it if your new to the game.

 

[Trial153]

Started this tonight.....

Lonesome Dove is one of my favorite books of all time. Try the Thalia trilogy, McMurtry is great.

Started one of those One Year Bibles myself on New Year’s Day. Finally gonna read it all.

Lemmy!

 

[Irrelevant]

Just finished:

Interesting, I thought it was pretty soft on supported facts until I got to the 18 pages of sources section at the end. Certainly makes me wonder about farming.

 

[Artemis.Agrotera]

I'll for sure do that. Thanks for the tip. I looked up what a signed copy of Lonesome Dove would cost for Christmas and I am just gonna have to stick with the library for now.

 

[VikingsGuy]

Working my way through the Alex McKnight series while I wait to find something more interesting. Serves the purpose, but only so-so.

Is the book better than the movie? I always thought the movie was done well and didn’t wanna ruin the movie by reading the book.

yes it is, you just can’t fit that much into the time allotted, even in a miniseries. That being said, I think they did as good a job as any movie I’ve seen following the book.

 

[High Desert]

I just read Beautiful Ruins by Jess Walter. It's a novel about some fictional events in Italy in the 1960s and contemporary Hollywood. It has nothing to do with hunting or the outdoors but it's engaging, compelling, and often funny.

 

[44hunter45]

Gary Paulsen’s Hachet survival series.

Mrs45 is a jr/sr high librarian. I review outdoor oriented books for her shelves.

My little activism to keep hunting positive books in front of teenagers

 

[JT88]

Not sure if it’s been up yet, but Alaska’s Wolf Man (the Frank Glaser story)

Incredible book. The guy was an absolute beast. Following the Caribou Migration with a pack and snowshoes=amazing
