Interesting reading, he had some very good ideas on conservation and protection of America both wildlife and lands Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure Theodore Roosevelt

The Big Red series, Stormy, Haunt Fox, Snow Dog, Wild Trek, and Swamp Cat all have trapping in them, as I'm sure many others do as well that I'm forgetting at the moment. He's my favorite author of all time.

Lugnut trapper L Joined: Dec 2006 SEPA	Has anyone read Wings in the Wind: the Armistice Day Storm of 1940 by Jon Steffes? It's a story about the 1940 storm that killed about 200 people, about half of them duck hunters. Jon's father survived the storm. I heard about the book and it's now in my ABE Books cart. He has several books out. The other one that sounds interesting is 45 Days: A Prequel to Wings in the Wind: The Armistice Day Storm of 1940. About to guys who decide to trap the 1937 Minnesota season in an effort to feed their family's. I'm looking for a decent copy of that one. Eh...wot?

Lugnut trapper L Joined: Dec 2006 SEPA	Originally Posted by Lugnut Originally Posted by Gulo Dog Days of Summer are here. No hunting seasons currently open where I live. Time for a good read. 1. Old Man and the Boy - probably the 10th time... 2. Where the Red Fern Grows - always a good read 3.Any Steinbeck; notably "Sweet Thursday" Whatcha reading? The Old Man and the Boy might be my favorite book of all time. I've read it three times now. I've grown fond of repeating some of the Old Man's sayings and words of wisdom to new, young hunters when they join me and the dogs for the first time. Thanks to your recommendation Sweet Thursday is now on my list. I should probably reread Cannery Row first though. I just finished Sweet Thursday. Good reading and an interesting sequel to Cannery Row (nine years later). Eh...wot?
