Samenvatting:

CLASSIC STORIES ABOUT AMERICA'S FAVORITE UPLAND GAME BIRD—AND ABOUT THE MEN AND DOGS WHO HUNT IT
First published in 1938, this wonderful book is the follow-up collection of stories on grouse hunting by ruffed grouse hunting specialist Burton L. Spiller. His first collection, published in 1935, Grouse Feathers, was widely considered by many to be the best book ever written on the topic, and this second instalment of tales will no doubt take up another honorary spot in every grouse hunter's library.
Beautifully illustrated throughout by Lynn Bogue Hunt.
"Burton L. Spiller's twin books, Grouse Feathers and More Grouse Feathers, are classics; they are as stirring today as they were in their first Derrydale editions, so true that time stands still.
"Long ago these volumes became collector's items…. The incomparable delights of grouse hunting, the aroma of a clean wilderness, and the almost pagan rapport that exists between a man and his dog never change. I hold Burt Spiller the finest grouse writer who ever lived."—Frank Woolner, author of Grouse and Grouse Hunting
"The reappearance of these two delightful blendings of warm, sensitive prose and fine art will gladden the hearts of all grouse hunters and lovers of fine hunting literature…."—Eric Peper, Editor, Field & Stream Book Club
