Against the Wind: Memories of Days in the Field with Bird Dogs, Camera, and Gun is the day by day story of an epic bird hunting adventure across four western states. It tells of the coming of age for four English setter puppies, 12 weeks old at the beginning of the hunting season, as they learn how to become bird dogs. The accounts of each day's hunting are beautifully illustrated with photos of the birds, the dogs in action, and the pristine wildlands of the West. It is not a "how to do it" manual like so many others, but the actual adventure tale itself, of over 100 days in the field by the author with his dogs, gun, camera, and birds. As an upland game bird hunting story, Against the Wind is simply the best there is.
