Title: What a find!
Review: I picked this form a dusty old bookshelf at the town recycling center because I vaguely remembered that the writer, like me, is an environmentalist. I did hunt and own dogs decades ago but feel ambivalent about both these days. I loved this book though.The author's descriptions of how hunting birds with his dog connects him to life's great continuum is the books great strength. As in all peak life experiences Rick Bass and Colter seem to be fully and intensely present as they hunt- the past and present are irrelevant at such times. I envy the ability they had to experience nature and life that way and understand what a loss the author suffered.It also didn't hurt that Bass is a great writer.
