I have gotten interesting books from the local library in the past due to fellow trapperman suggestions. A good book I am reading now is the Billion Dollar Spy. What do you guys recommend for reading? Thank you for your time.

If you've not read Lonesome Dove, do so. I'm reading it for at least the fourth time. Also, recommend Steinbeck (any of 'em, especially Cannery Row and Sweet Thursday).

Russell Annabel wrote some good books on Alaska Capstick or Ruark on Africa, don't overlook Hibben, or JA Hunter Corbett on India and hunting man eaters, Kenneth Anderson wrote some books to but he seems to be embellish things ALOT
Theodore Roosevelt is good but dry, I like Outdoor Pastimes of an American Hunter best out of his books
Frederick Selous wrote some darn good reading too
Gene Hill is you want to feel like you're sitting with an Uncle or grandfather and hes telling stories, same with Ruark's "Old Man and the Boy"
Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure

Hey Blak Spot I like the Woodcraft book, I may need to look for that one
