Always Take Your Rifle

Always Take Your Rifle is a collection of short articles on hunting and fishing drawn from the author's adventures (or, more often, misadventures) in the outdoors. From the poignant "Living and Dying in Four Wheel Drive" to the comical "Why do I Always get a Defective One?", the stories span a twenty-five year history of his days afield. Scattered throughout the book are some of the author's favorite wild game recipes, which you are sure to love as much as he does.

Previously published as "A Life Spent Afield", this book has been completely re-edited and updated to bring some of the stories up to date with the author's current experiences afield. Most of the stories in the book have been expanded from their original versions, and the recipes are all-new to the book.
