Böcker av Douglas Butler

Michael Milkovich was a legendary wrestling coach at Maple Heights High School. But he was so much more than that. He was a strong and loving father, a determined man who was true to his principles (all the way to the United States Supreme Court), and a dedicated educator. He was also a respected mentor and inspiration to generations of student athletes, and a man of keen insight and creativity. This tribute looks at the many things that made him a champion in life.

Thirty shooting stories in pursuit of pheasant, mallard, geese, hares, mink, even an old wild goat, these modern tales involve bi-lingual dogs, an ignominious goose, red-letter days and disappointments, days on boglands, grouse moors, smart shoots and estuaries. Punt gunning, rough shooting and wildfowling, dawns and dusks and assorted brushes with ecstasy and near-death. Douglas Butler has an ear for a good shooting story and, as an inveterate shooter himself, knows just what curious, unexpected, dramatic things can sometimes happen when out in the fields, woods and marshes with fellow guns and dogs.
