Emphasizing adventure, natural history, and Americana from a simpler, more romantic era of deer hunting, white-tailed deer historian Rob Wegner presents readers with this dramatic, complimentary volume to Legendary Deer Camps. The next installment in the Deer & Deer Hunting Classics Series, this outstanding collection of writings and nostalgia from our 19th century deer camps, and the history surrounding their colorful occupants, reconnects readers with this time-honored tradition. Luxurious illustrations offer a fascinating mix of classic photography and prints from some of America's most prominent, influential artists - Winslow Homer, Currier and Ives, and Frederic Remington. The text is authoritative, but engaging, profiling a dozen of America's greatest deer hunters - eleven true-to-life heroes, including John James Audubon, Theodore Van Dyke and Archibald Rutledge - and their fictitious prototype "Natty Bumppo." A rich blend of sporting art and natural, literary history - Rob Wegner has truly created a masterpiece.
