Immerse yourself in the rich sights, sounds, and smells of big game
hunting in "Alaskan Sunrise to African Sunset," a rollicking tale
of one man's hunting adventures in the great outdoors. With
stunning detail and a flair for storytelling, Glenn T. Bingham
shares his thirty-year journey from his humble beginnings hunting
small game and deer in upstate New York to escapades throughout the
lower 48 states, Canada, Alaska, and Africa. Follow Bingham as he
hunts whitetails in the great white north, stalks mule deer in the
Rocky Mountains, climbs above the Arctic Circle for dall sheep, and
tracks cape buffalo into the tall grass of Zimbabwe. Along the way
he recreates the beauty of nature, lessons learned (sometimes the
hard way), and the satisfaction of success. Containing more than
fifty pictures, this engrossing account presents an exciting, often
humorous look at Bingham's experiences in some of the most remote
places on the planet. Experience the thrill of the hunt with
"Alaskan Sunrise to African Sunset"
T.E. Pritt's timeless classic The Book of the Grayling has inspired
generations of fly-fishers. First published in 1888, it was long
considered the definitive book of the subject of grayling. Pritt
drew from a long and rich Northern English tradition of fly-fishing
in the limestone rivers and streams of Yorkshire. Many of the
methods and techniques he describes are still to be found in use
today. This new edition of The Book of the Grayling makes Pritt's
eloquent prose available to fly-fishers and armchair adventurers
the world over.
First published in the 1940s. One of the best books ever written
for the mainly small bore rifle man. Four detailed sections deal
with: Military and Sporting Shooting - Techniques of Rifle Shooting
- Technical Matters - History of the Sport. Every aspect of rifle
shooting is discussed including calibres, ammunition, equipment,
hunting, target shooting, sights and much more. Illustrated. Many
of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s
and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
Home Farm Books are republishing these classic works in affordable,
high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
