The Sporting Road

by Jim Fergus
Rick Bass
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample

More than just a "man and his dog" hunting adventure, The Sporting Road is a book about the land and man's place in it.

It is also, in many ways, a book about relationships; with nature, animals, and the people with who live around us. As Rick Bass says in his introduction, Jim Fergus is a man for whom "The common denominator is not geographical, but internal; here is a man who belongs intensely to the living. And slowly, gradually —essay by essay—you become aware of the unsaid: the fact that he fits a diminishing time, a diminishing space, and a diminishing code of manners. That he always puts others before him; that he considers and respects his friends, his prey, his dogs, and the landscapes that engage these things."
