The Hunter’s Eye

A veteran hunter of forty years, author Scott E. Costine entertains and educates with twenty-six thrilling short stories of diverse hunts. Pursuing large and small game alike-with a variety of weapons and all across the country-this book will place readers squarely in "the hunter's boots," to see things through "the hunter's eye." Drawing upon decades of experience, these stories contain valuable lessons derived from years of trial and error in the field. They will improve the skills and success of any hunter, from the greenest novice to the most experienced.

With tales ranging from childhood hunting with his father, to passing the tradition on to his own son, the author takes special care to outline the motivations behind the ancient and noble pursuit of hunting, illustrating its physical, psychological, emotional, and "spiritual" benefits. Mixing memory, philosophy, sentiment, and experience, these tales would be perfect around any campfire, brief enough to be entertaining, yet full of wisdom for those who seek it. The author touches upon the very "soul" of hunting, detailing why, for so many participants, it is not just a passion; it is closer to a "religion."

Additionally, because wild game is often wildly misunderstood and poorly prepared, each chapter provides a new, easy, and delicious recipe for converting the "fruits of the field" into the finest table-fare.
