    Great read! Peter Ryan, Hunting NZ

    Picked up this book at the local library, was hooked immediately. A diifferent kind of read, a mix of short stories, history, classic rifles, our environment, life issues and challenges. Highly recommmended.

    Got both his books. Very refreshing take on a hunting life. He also makes great sense with his Fish and Game contributions.

    Ok, so based on your recommendations, I bought the book.
    Bloody brilliant.
    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Read this book a few weeks ago. I really like Peters style and the contributions from other people and authors. Has a fine taste for the classics in firearms too.
    Cheers @Faraway
