First published in 1859, Forty-Four Years of the Life of a Hunter records life in early America, hunting in the wilderness, and descriptions of game and plants of the time. Part backwoods history, part heroic adventure story, the book recounts Meshach Browning's hunts for white-tailed deer through the Appalachian wilderness of Maryland and West Virginia.
About the Author:
Meshach Browning is a hunter in the company of Daniel Boone, John James Audobon, Oliver Hazard Perry, and Theodore Roosevelt.
Robert Wegner is a white-tailed deer historian in southern Wisconsin and author of Deer and Deer Hunting. He is currently working on a book about deer camps.
Review:
"It fills a certain gap in American literature, being not only a picture in detail of the savage youth through which every one of the States has passed in turn, but of a man of the woods."
--Rebecca Harding, Harper's New Monthly Magazine
"It is a classic in every sense of the word."
--James Casada
