Havilah Babcock's "I Don't Want to Shoot an Elephant" is another good one.

Guthrey's "On Bobwhites" is a study of the little treasures, from habitat to disease and decline.

Just picked up The Bobwhite Quail, edited by Lamar Underwood, which is an anthology and looks great. Articles by many of quail hunting's best. Thanks to C.O.B. for the recommendation

The Prince of Game Birds by Charles Elliott

Dean, I have the Best of Nash based off your prev I us reccomendation. I just ordered Mark Right. I would imagine you would endorse getting Bloodlines Ole miss and the rest of his writtings?

I personally like all of Nash Buckingham's books. I have several but I don't have all of them. I enjoy his style very much.

I agree with Dean (big surprise) i have read most of Nash Buckingham's books

Tattered Coat may be my favorite

I greatly enjoyed the Best of book I read, just looking at the books I was wondering if they are all about hunting.

Not all are specifically about hunting but are generally of local lore and color, humorous antics and of course conservation and management of the resource.

Just finished Taps Upland Autumn and just started Mark Right. Thanks for the suggestion.
