Download or read book Duck Hunting in America written by Steven Lahr and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this piece of work is misleading in many respects. You might pick it up and peruse it thinking that wow, its a new waterfowl book. Well, youll find some. The core and idea of whats inside in reality is somewhat disguised. The title in essence is a reflection more of life and with some different perspectives. The writer has deep love of the Art of Waterfowling. Hes also a bird watcher and a long time member of the Cornell Ornithology Association. (Many accolades to this organization!). Think of the concept of this title as whats written is more of a reflection on the writer himself. Get All Your Ducks In A Row and well attempt to embark on some inner meanings. Hopefully, it will grow. The first book, Rantings of an Ivy League Mad Man, has a parallel. Lets get out the decoys and sit tight as we watch the morning come to full light. If youve been there with your camo on, you most likely wont be bored. Hopefully, we pass on this tradition to those we love because of what happens to waterfowl and human beings alike. Im trying to pass on a message. Some may struggle making the connection between the book title and its content. I hope they persevere. Hopefully youll grasp the concept as it is. These arent necessarily poems. I call them po-ms for better clarity. Youll see why. Enjoy, Steve C. Lahr
