Hunters and fishermen are familiar with the "moment of truth"--that adrenaline-surging, heart-pounding instant when success and failure hang in the balance. In that moment they know if they will experience the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat. The 90 devotions in In Pursuit are written specifically for this outdoorsman. Each devotion expertly weaves scriptural truth into true hunting and fishing stories that capture the thrill of the great outdoors and work on the hearts of men who are zealous in their drive to get out on the lake or up in the deer blind. These reflections on the active life help prepare men for success and significance both spiritually and in their sport. It is the perfect gift for the outdoorsman. Foreword by Steve Chapman.

An award-winning historian tells the story of hunting in America, showing how this sport has shaped our national identity. From Daniel Boone to Teddy Roosevelt, hunting is one of America's most sacred-but also most fraught-traditions. It was promoted in the 19th century as a way to reconnect "soft" urban Americans with nature and to the legacy of the country's pathfinding heroes. Fair chase, a hunting code of ethics emphasizing fairness, rugged independence, and restraint towards wildlife, emerged as a worldview and gave birth to the conservation movement. But the sport's popularity also caused class, ethnic, and racial divisions, and stirred debate about the treatment of Native Americans and the role of hunting in preparing young men for war. This sweeping and balanced book offers a definitive account of hunting in America. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the evolution of our nation's foundational myths.

Top tactics for whitetails from Tom Miranda...and many more of America's top hunters! Over thousands of years, whitetails have spread out across North America and adapted to new habitats, evolving into nearly 20 subspecies today. In the pages of The Rut Hutners, join veteran bowhunter Tom Miranda as he looks into the challenges of hunting whitetails in the eight recognized territories of the North American Whitetail SLAM. With over 30 years of bowhunting experience, Miranda has assembled a team of top whitetail hunters to discuss the differences in habitat and habits, tactics and strategies for hunting white-tailed deer in the four corners of our continent. Because of a whitetail buck's elusive nature, completing a Whitetail SLAM can be a difficult task. Yet with the knowledge acquired from this book, hunters can set out to achieve their goals when hunting mature, dominant bucks.

"George Frison is an icon in American archeology.

Collins, Texas Archeological Research Laboratory, the University of Texas at Austin “This small book is a record of achievement and dedication to learning rarely seen in the profession of archaeology. It is the inspirational product of a person who fully understands the critical importance of prior knowledge about the behavior of prey to inferring the activities of ancient hunter-gatherers. Students of past hunter-gatherers need to read this book.”—Lewis R. Binford, author of In Pursuit of the Past
