Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CLASSIC STORIES ABOUT AMERICA’S FAVORITE UPLAND GAME BIRD—AND ABOUT THE MEN AND DOGS WHO HUNT IT First published in 1935, this collection of stories on grouse hunting from specialist Burton L. Spiller was widely considered by many to be the best book ever written on the topic, and at the very least it should be a part of every grouse hunter’s library. Beautifully illustrated throughout by Lynn Bogue Hunt. “Burton L. Spiller’s twin books, Grouse Feathers and More Grouse Feathers, are classics; they are as stirring today as they were in their first Derrydale editions, so true that time stands still. “Long ago these volumes became collector’s items.... The incomparable delights of grouse hunting, the aroma of a clean wilderness, and the almost pagan rapport that exists between a man and his dog never change. I hold Burt Spiller the finest grouse writer who ever lived.”—Frank Woolner, author of Grouse and Grouse Hunting “The reappearance of these two delightful blendings of warm, sensitive prose and fine art will gladden the hearts of all grouse hunters and lovers of fine hunting literature....”—Eric Peper, Editor, Field & Stream Book Club
