Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. A very good copy. The author writes: 'Funny, isn't it, how the hardships of the bush are dismissed by time and only the fondest memories survive. Gone are all thoughts of life in a cold, damp tent, constantly wet boots and clothing, blisters, blowflies, chafed thighs, sore backs, sandflies, hook grass, bush lawyer and dehydrated food. Supplejack, rainstorms, snow and aching legs don't feature either, dismissed as insignificant and not worth remembering. As always, my face breaks into a grin when I recall some incident or disaster that made one hunting trip more memorable than another. When a man is armed with a hard-case bunch of mates, a sense of humour and a rifle, he's likely to run into a bit of mischief and encounter a few interesting situations while in the mountains.'.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. Feels unread with a gift inscription. A lot has been written about the successes of deerstalkers and about venison recovery in general, but little has been committed to paper about things that go bump in the bush! For every deer shot the average hunter has suffered a series of mishaps, misfires, clean misses, stuff-ups and other testing events. This book tells of Al Lester's less successful journeys into the bush. He tells tales about himself, his mates and, as always, the one that got away that was 'as big as a house, mate!' The majority of stories in the book are about deer hunting and are set throughout the South Island, with several jaunts in the North Island. However, Big Al also hunts possums, pigs, goats and goes in for a bit of trout poaching.
