Industry Reviews
"Like Zen koans, the stories and reflections in this book merely try to indicate directions and point down some paths that each person may follow, by describing, rendering, and mulling on what is ultimately a feeling--a sensibility--that cannot be conveyed in words."
Bloomsbury Review

"Even thoughtful people tend to arrive at their ideas about hunting viscerally. we are against it or we are for it, and raising the subject in mixed company is provocative. So here's a toast to a real upstream swimmer, David Peterson, for this splendid, invigorating and probably futile attempt to enrich all of us, no matter what our dead reckoning about hunting."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - John Balzar
