About this ebook

“A Hunter's Road is that rarest of books, a word journey that can one minute have you doubled over with laughter, and a few pages later leave you wiping a tear from your eye.”
—Heartland USA

In an epic season of sport, Jim Fergus and his trusty Lab, Sweetzer, trek the mountains, plains, prairies, forests, marshes, deltas, and deserts of America, both alone and with a host of memorable companions.

Compared by critics to John Steinbeck's Travels with Charley in Search of America and Ivan Turgenev's Hunter's Sketches, A Hunter's Road is a travel adventure tale in which bird hunting is less an end than a vehicle straight to the heart of the country.
