Charlie last time i chatted with him was promising another book before the end of the year. Probably too busy building his new plane.

You'll Learn no Harm from the Hills by Newton McConachie is a Classic , not sure on the spelling there lol , and I second that book by Major R A Wilson is a classic , on a lighter and newer side Vern Wilsons HOON HUNTER is a good read I reckon .

+1. Also An Era Gone by "Rattie"

Great NZ Deer Heads Vol I, II & III by Bruce Banwell
Highland stags of Otago by Bruce Banwell
The red stags of the Rakaia by Bruce Banwell

All great books, especially if you have an interest in our early pioneer hunting. And a great way of sourcing top blood lines for future hunting trips.

Red Stags calling by Gordon Atkinson is probably my favourite. That man is a legend in my view!
