Bill Heavey is an editor and columnist for Field and Stream Magazine. He writes about hunting and fishing and the outdoors in general. This collection contains articles from that publication and others. Most of the book is comprised of tales of failures (some spectacularly so) that occurred during his hunting and fishing trips. Also included are reminiscences about his father and grandfather and the legacy they left to Heavey. A poignant, non-sporting story involving the death of his daughter to SIDS and the eventual adoption of another child is quite touching. This is a light read that is often humorous though not to the degree of similar books by Patrick F. McManus.
