The outdoors writers of the twentieth century speak here in a variety of voices about this tradition. Some are poetic, some are documentary, some are gripping, and some are introspective. But all provide a record of the times in which they lived, and, directly or indirectly, write fondly of the special connection to the land and to the game that drives humankind to hunt. The writers in 100 Years of Hunting include two former presidents of the United States, two winners of the Pulitzer Prize, one winner of the Nobel Prize, one of the most popular novelists of the twentieth century, several beloved outdoors writers made famous in the pages of Field & Stream, Sports Afield, and Outdoor Life, a Minnesota naturalist, a man who later in life became a successful fruit and vegetable farmer, and a geologist. It's really quite a mix. The challenge of choosing selections for a book like this lies in the inevitability of not being able to use some important voices. For fans of the work of prominent outdoors writers such as Jack O'Connor, Corey Ford, Rick Bass, Thomas McGuane, Aldo Leopold, Theodore Roosevelt, and others worthy of inclusion, we sincerely apologize. Of course, this isn't an anthology of words alone, but an illustrated collection that we hope will bring this century of hunting to life. We hope you will find this selection of color photographs, historical images, paintings, and vintage advertisements as remarkable and appealing as we do. Today actual days afield are greatly limited. But the experience rests in your soul year-round, waiting patiently for the season opener. Until those hallowed autumn days begin anew, we hope this collection will help feed your yearning for the hunt." - excerpt from the Introduction. Rud, Andrea (book designer); (illustratore).
