Good morning:
Is this book worth pursuing? Is it new material or a compilation of previous works and stories?
Since I retired, I thinned out my library of military related small arms books to make room for more shotgun and upland/waterfowl/breed history works.
Thanks in advance for any input.

It's a kind of coffee table book, but it does have some new writings in it. It's a substantial book.

If NOTHING else it does a few things:
Let's people coming to your house know that you're an odd duck for having a passion for grouse
It will firmly anchor your little coffee table to the floor
It has many wonderful photographs
It won't fill the void of sitting in front of a fire with GBE, Spiller or de la Valdene, as it's substantial and hard to handle but it's well worth it in my eyes and a beautiful thing to have.

Thank you Dean. I think in our own ways we're all a little mentally ill. But those who hunt ruffed grouse perhaps the most touched :rotf::rotf::rotf:
