I had trade editions of Grouse and Woodcock hunting from Amwell Press by GBE that I sold years ago to help buy mu first safe. I wouldn't mind replacing them.

Dean I KNOW you don't have Grouse Points and other Drivel by Cobb. Just send me an advance and i'll write you up a limited edition.

Dean, do you have "A Passion For Grouse"? Coffee table sized with wonderful pics, many of which are Setters with some of the same blood that courses through the veins of your dog.
Expensive -- but worth every penny.

Grouse Hunting "the anti-Christ of the north woods" or
Grouse Hunting "hello my name is Chad, and I'm a Grouse-aholic" or
Grouse Hunting "King of Upland Birds" subtitled all the above

Dean, I just finished reading "The Upland Alleghenies" by Bob Fala, who is now the WV DNR head, taking over for Frank Jezorio. Not a classic by any means, but enjoyable read. I had planned on reading That's Ruff at the beach in Sept just before my 2 week UP trip. May I suggest Timberdoodle Tales by Tom Waters and "Afield" by Robert DeMott. Mark Jeffery Volk wrote at least 5 books on grouse hunting/trout fishing, The Winding Ridge Trilogy, and Pages from a Mountain Journal,1 and2. I have 60-70 books on basically upland pursuits--far from a library of works, but I have made it my goal to go back and read every one of them again. There is this damn thing called the internet that keeps me from reading as much as I would like. See you at the Southern
