Download or read book Nature Wars written by Jim Sterba and published by Crown. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For four hundred years, explorers, traders, and settlers plundered North American wildlife in an escalating rampage, but in the twentieth century an incredible turnaround took place. Conservationists created wildlife sanctuaries, restored habitats, and imposed regulations on hunters and trappers. Over decades, they nursed many wild populations back to health. Then, after World War II, something happened that conservationists hadn’t foreseen: sprawl. People moved into suburbs, and then kept moving outward. All the while, well-meaning efforts to protect animals allowed wild populations to burgeon out of control, causing damage costing billions, degrading ecosystems, and touching off disputes that polarized communities. The result is a mix of people and wildlife that should be an animal-lover’s dream, but often turns into a sprawl-dweller’s nightmare. Deeply researched, eloquently written, and perceptively humorous, Nature Wars expresses the need for organic reconnection with our natural ecosystem by offering a provocative look at how Americans created an inadvertent mess.
Download or read book Whitetail Deer Hunting My Way written by Frank W. Wathley and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-09-23 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 10 years ago if it was deer season, I was in the woods. I still try to follow that rule but New York State has made the hunting season so long, I cant afford the loss of income for that amount of time. On top of that, 70 or more days open for deer season is a wicked strain on my senses. I am hung up on the quarter moon phase for my dream buck hunt. I always plan my hunting around these two moons. The length of the bow/gun deer season allows for two full moon phases. A small part of my reasoning here for a shorter deer hunting season is, envy I suppose. The fact is, Im a self employed landscaper, watching these two extra quarter moons go through their phases and not being able to fit them in to my hunting budget. I will hopefully make more sense of this moon theory, later on in this book. Pay attention because there is tip after tip buried in each story. Maybe not always a new one but theres a bunch of them here. My stories are true facts, my methods and techniques have all proven themselves many times for me, over a life time of whitetail deer hunting. Now hopefully, you have time to kick back and enjoy a fact filled humorous book about whitetail deer hunting done my way in Columbia and Greene Counties of New York State.

Download or read book Hunting the Deceitful Turkey written by Mark Twain and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-19 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 - April 21, 1910), better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist. He wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), the latter often called "The Great American Novel." Twain grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, which provided the setting for Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer. After an apprenticeship with a printer, he worked as a typesetter and contributed articles to the newspaper of his older brother, Orion Clemens. He later became a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi River before heading west to join Orion in Nevada. He referred humorously to his singular lack of success at mining, turning to journalism for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. In 1865, his humorous story, "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," was published, based on a story he heard at Angels Hotel in Angels Camp, California, where he had spent some time as a miner. The short story brought international attention, and was even translated into classic Greek. His wit and satire, in prose and in speech, earned praise from critics and peers, and he was a friend to presidents, artists, industrialists, and European royalty. Though Twain earned a great deal of money from his writings and lectures, he invested in ventures that lost a great deal of money, notably the Paige Compositor, a mechanical typesetter, which failed because of its complexity and imprecision. In the wake of these financial setbacks, he filed for protection from his creditors via bankruptcy, and with the help of Henry Huttleston Rogers eventually overcame his financial troubles. Twain chose to pay all his pre-bankruptcy creditors in full, though he had no legal responsibility to do so. Twain was born shortly after a visit by Halley's Comet, and he predicted that he would "go out with it," too. He died the day after the comet returned. He was lauded as the "greatest American humorist of his age," and William Faulkner called Twain "the father of American literature."
Download or read book The Fair Chase written by Philip Dray and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An award-winning historian tells the story of hunting in America, showing how this sport has shaped our national identity. From Daniel Boone to Teddy Roosevelt, hunting is one of America's most sacred-but also most fraught-traditions. It was promoted in the 19th century as a way to reconnect "soft" urban Americans with nature and to the legacy of the country's pathfinding heroes. Fair chase, a hunting code of ethics emphasizing fairness, rugged independence, and restraint towards wildlife, emerged as a worldview and gave birth to the conservation movement. But the sport's popularity also caused class, ethnic, and racial divisions, and stirred debate about the treatment of Native Americans and the role of hunting in preparing young men for war. This sweeping and balanced book offers a definitive account of hunting in America. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the evolution of our nation's foundational myths.
