A High, Lonesome Call

Told in the third person and only slightly fictionalized, this is the moving autobiographical, and often humorous sorty of a middle-aged carpenter, Kenneth Parker, and his two Brittany gun dogs, Pete and Jake, who together make an annual treck across the country to the West and Midwest, during bird-hunting season. It is very much about the relationship between man and dog, about the land they hunt, about the people they encounter, and about the birds they pursue. All of these stories are timeless and beautifully crafted. Similar in tone, quality and theme to Jim Fergus's highly successful non-fiction work, A Hunter's Road, this book is full of brilliantly descriptive, evocative writing. Robert Holthouser, who uses the pen name "Tred Slough," is one of America's most promising, most talented sporting writers. His work has been published in several prestigious outdoor magazines, including Shooting Sportsman and Gray's Sporting Journal.
