Home, At Last, Is The Hunter

Not since the skilled pens of Archibald Rutledge and Robert Ruark has the appreciation of the hunter for his quarry and for the loveliness of nature been so masterfully combined as W. H. (Chip) Gross has done in his exceptional book, Home, At Last, Is The Hunter. With smoothness and strength, he leads the reader into the woods in quest of the wild turkey, one of the wiliest of all creatures to hunt, and shows us the nature of this fine gamebird and those who seek it, making us experience the thrill and excitement that such a pursuit can evoke. In the process, he makes us care deeply for the youthful protagonist, Jeff Stewart, and that boy's wonderful grandfather, The Boss, with the same deftness and skill exhibited by Ruark in his The Old Man and the Boy. It is, at one and the same time, a grand adventure and a study in hunting safety and respect for game laws. Whether the reader is a novice turkey hunter, an experienced veteran, or even a nonhunter, he or she cannot help but be moved by the able blend of woodland lore, joy of the hunt, the intense but never maudlin sadness, joy and fulfillment so expertly woven into these pages. Home, At Last, Is The Hunter is truly a rich and memorable work and highly recommended. ---Allan W. Eckert, Author (Five-time Pulitzer Prize nominee and Emmy award-winning script writer)
