Item description from seller

From harriscenter dot org: "Bobcats Before Breakfast is the firsthand account of a 20th century naturalist, guide, hunter, trapper, and woodsman who spent more than forty years living with and off the land. With grit and zeal, [Kulish] gathered knowledge about how animals live and shared his findings [as a naturalist for] the Harris Center for Conservation Education in Hancock, NH. Kulish’s daily routine was to rise before dawn, get out into the woods, and track, observe, and record his findings on deer, otters, beaver, bobcats — all before breakfast. “I’m still not sure whether I learned to understand people because they are so much like wild animals, or wild animals because they are so much like people,” wrote Kulish." THIS book is INSCRIBED by the author "If you are willing to try Bobcats Before Breakfast, I'm game to try Mulberry Trout for lunch, Ogden."
