Synopsis
From a celebrated writer on the outdoors, hilarious stories about the joys and pitfalls of hunting, fishing, family, and adventure, For more than twenty years, Bill Heavey--a three-time National Magazine Award finalist--has staked a claim as one of America's best writers. In feature stories and his Field & Stream column "A Sportsman's Life," as well as other publications, he has taken readers across the country and beyond to experience his triumphs and failures as a suburban dad who happens to love hunting and fishing. Should the Tent Be Burning Like That? gathers together a wide range of Heavey's best work. He nearly drowns attempting to fish the pond inside the cloverleaf off an Interstate Highway four miles from the White House. He rents and crashes a forty-four-foot houseboat on a river in Florida. On a manic weeklong deer archery hunt in Ohio, he finds it necessary to practice by shooting arrows into his motel room's phonebook (the blunt penetrates all the way to page 358, KITCHEN CABINET--REFACING & REFINISHING). Accompanying a shaggy steelhead fanatic--Mikey, who has no job or fixed address but owns four boats--on a thousand-mile odyssey up and down the California coast in search of fishable water, he comes to see Mikey as a purer soul than almost anyone he has ever met. Whatever the subject, Heavey's tales are odes to the notion that enthusiasm is more important than skill, and a testament to the enduring power of the natural world. Whether he's hunting mule deer in Montana, draining cash on an overpriced pistol, or ruminating on the joys and agonies of outdoor gear, Heavey always entertains and enlightens with honesty and wit., For more than twenty years, Bill Heavey--a three-time National Magazine Award finalist--has staked a claim as one of America's best writers.

- b***r (756)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI've bought a lot of online books from book sellers, and they've been in the condition described, but the flimsy packing has done some damage to several books. Waddle is the only Book Seller that sent this book in a box - and not only was the book in the great condition described, but it remained in that condition when I rec'vd it! 10-Stars!!!The Great American Recipe Cookbook: Regional Cuisine and Family Favorites from (#126065017074)
- a***0 (168)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book was sent in a plain plastic envelope without cardboard stiffners, nor outside marking saying "do not bend". The book arrived with a major crease of its spine. I contacted seller; sending him photos and he replied asking me to send the coloring book back to him with a tracking number and then he would reimburse me. Since the book only cost $10 and it would cost me another $5 and a trip to the Post Office, I decided to just throw it out in the dumpster. Disappointed in the seller.
