Here in clear-eyed prose is the life-changing story of one boy and one dog who made it through the cacophony of modern America to a life of appreciation and outdoor living. It is a celebration of the deep roots of another time and place—of a dog, a gun, and time enough.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1620064847\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1620064847.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Labare, Dennis|Horn, Bill|Labare, Helen Stacy|Allen, Gordon|Smith, Steve\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43256938889277,"sku":"BVV.1620064847.VG","price":14.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/1620064847-0.jpg?v=1780865895","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/appalachian-grouse-dog-a-boomer-s-memoir","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
