Coveys and Singles: The Handbook of Quail Hunting

A. S. Barnes, 1980-01-01. First Edition. Hardcover. Like New/Fine. 8x5x0. The first complete handbook for the sport of quail hunting, based on a lifetime of experience from New Jersey to Florida, and across mid America to California, Oregon, and Hawaii in the Pacific. With information on the Bobwhite Quail and his western cousins, cover and habitat, management, hunting methods, favorite guns, hunting dogs, hunting gear, field care and recipes, and more. Bob Gooch spent over 40 years as an outdoor writer, and authored 20 books on various outdoor subjects and more than 2,000 magazine articles. His name grew to be synonymous with hunting, fishing, and conservation in the state of Virginia and beyond, and his peers affectionately called him “the dean of Virginia outdoor writers.” A classic work in the field, rarely offered in this condition (especially so, with dustjacket).
