À propos de cet audio

Following his English setters into thickets in search of grouse and woodcock, Mark Parman feels the pull of older ways and lost wisdom. How rare it is, in our high-tech world, to find oneself completely off the track, bewildered in the wild, and then find the path home by sight and scent and memory.

Among the Aspen interweaves tales of companionable dogs, lucky hunts, and favorite coverts where quarry lurks with ruminations on the demise of hunting traditions, the sale of public lands and the privatization of places to hunt, the growing indifference to science, and the loss of wilderness on a planet increasingly transformed by the sprawl of humanity.

The book is published by University of Wisconsin Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Parman, in these well-crafted stories and thoughtful essays, teaches us that there is much more to hunting than shooting." (Jerry Apps)

"Reading his words, we're smelling the sweet ferns, hearing the faint clank of a dog's bell, seeing the sudden flush of birds." (Jerry Davis)
