Synopsis America, Wild Turkeys and Mongrel Dogs by : Kenny Morgan
Morgan's humorous and resource-filled collection of essays centers on turkey hunting, wildlife behavior, and growing up in the small Louisiana town of Jackson in the mid-20th century.A mixed breed of a book, it's what you get when you cross the roguish, homespun charm of a master storyteller with the wisdom of a master hunter, turkey caller maker, inventor, naturalist, and teacher-philosopher.With humility and humor the late Kenny Morgan (1946-2011) uses the antics of his lovable, but uncivilized childhood mongrel dog, Buster, as allegory for human nature, with the gentle reminder that "how you act matters." Morgan offers a witty examination of simpler times, giving voice to characters and shenanigans of his colorful life, with relevance -- life lessons -- for our time. The book's format pairs lush images of wildlife and American landscapes with Morgan's thoughtful musings on 50+ years of pursuing the wild turkey--and the practice he's learned along the way to "live artfully." "My intent is to set standards by teaching the artistry of the hunt: practicing cleverness and integrity in the pursuit of wild things," he says.Indeed, the book brims with expert wild turkey-calling and -hunting technique. But its real beauty comes through Morgan's captivating observations of wildlife, told with vivid tales that ensnare hunters and non-hunters alike with fascinating insights, such as how animals communicate--even across species--to look out for one another.Even more, it's about applying principles learned in the wild to cultivate decency with choices we make on the paths of the everyday.Anyone who appreciates a story well-told and compelling art photographs, or someone looking for first-rate tips to call up and bag a gobbler, will find this book a valuable addition to their library, nightstand, or coffee table.America, Wild Turkeys & Mongrel Dogs is a celebration of the joy that is all around us.

Synopsis The Most Dangerous Game by : Richard Connell
Sanger Rainsford is a big-game hunter, who finds himself washed up on an island owned by the eccentric General Zaroff. Zaroff, a big-game hunter himself, has heard of Rainsford’s abilities with a gun and organises a hunt. However, they’re not after animals – they’re after people. When he protests, Rainsford the hunter becomes Rainsford the hunted. Sharing similarities with "The Hunger Games", starring Jennifer Lawrence, this is the story that created the template for pitting man against man. Born in New York, Richard Connell (1893 – 1949) went on to become an acclaimed author, screenwriter, and journalist. He is best remembered for the gripping novel "The Most Dangerous Game" and for receiving an Oscar nomination for the screenplay "Meet John Doe".
