Pheasants of the Mind is an introspective, sensitive book of timeless flavor in which pheasant hunting dominates the author's thoughts and actions throughout the year. It is a celebration of the time-honored art of pheasant hunting. Datus Proper was a regular contributor to Field and Stream Magazine and wrote hundreds of articles for other outdoor publications. Throughout his life, Eldridge Hardie pursued his passions of bird hunting and fly fishing, which inspired his career in sporting art. A lifetime of his paintings and drawings, as well as notes, journal entries and other writings can be found in magazines, books, and the homes of his family and collectors. Eldridge summed up his long career by saying, ?I was born to hunt, fish, and make art about these passions.? Signed by Author.
