Quail Books

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.

When it was time for Dr. Babcock's class in the Fall one of us would stop by his car to see if his bird dog was inside. The other indication would be if he was dressed in his hunting attire. If, either, we knew that class would be short if at all. I remember someone writing on the blackboard "Class cancelled due to quail"

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

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?

[Dean Romig]

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.

[OH Osthaus]

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

Tattered Coat may be my favorite

[King Cobb]

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

[Dean Romig]

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.
