Synopsis

Deserving a place in the library of every sportsman who loves memorable hunts, talented dogs, powerful fish, and fine shotguns, Traveler's Tales is, nonetheless, much more than a fishing and hunting book. In his trademark relaxed, readable style, McIntosh explores not only the fascinating places he has gone afield with rod or gun, but also the people he has hunted and fished with.

About this title

From the Publisher:

"Tales" deserves a place in every sportsman's library...
This is much more than a fishing and hunting book. With extraordinary writing McIntosh brings alive the sights, scents and sounds of each trip, and delves into the characters of the people he journeys with. It deserves a place in the library of every sportsman who loves memorable hunts, talented dogs, powerful fish, and fine shotguns.

An excerpt from Traveler's Tales: "My mother (once) asked me what I wanted to be, and I said, 'A wanderer.'...Had I known on that long-ago night that owning a small talent for tinkering with the language could be the key to adventuring in far-flung places, I might have taken up the craft as a full-time occupation sooner."
