Back Cover Copy
Loaded with turkey-hunting anecdotes gleaned from a lifetime of experience, The American Wild Turkey not only entertains, but teaches through example. With his remarkably insightful, entertaining stories, McDaniel expounds on the finer points of turkey hunting such as: turkey habits and lore; hunting techniques; calling; and guns and gear.McDaniel's stated goal is to convey the thrills generated by turkey hunting, to impart the subtlety of the skills necessary to become a competent turkey hunter, and to increase the general public's respect for the wild turkey. He has succeeded remarkably on all counts by outdoing himself with this, his third book. His passion and enthusiasm brims from every page as he transports readers to every hunt, in stride with every hunting partner. (6 1/4 X 9 1/4, 260 pages)
