Anyone care to share their favorite Christmas hunting story?

[Andy]

Not YOUR story, I'm talking about published works about hunting around Christmas time..etc. At this time of year reading stuff like that in front of a fire with a dog on your lap can be a great gift. If you have any stories from books, or magazines, please share what you like. Years ago I read a wonderful story in Grays about a Christmas goose but have been unable to find it. Not sure where to post this as it doesn't have to be about Parkers, or birds. Deer hunting is fine. I'm even open to stories revolving around Christmas cooking with wild game.

Or, if there's nothing, give me a Christmas wild game recipe : )
