Hunting | Secondhand

Second hand.

A cracking account of the doings of 'Government Deer Shooting Party Number Six' - in the bush and in the city. Canadian Ron Helmer takes you into the Urewera country with the deer hunters, up razorbacks, across roaring streams, through back-breaking bush. You look along his rifle sights at graceful deer and savage boars and you see big rainbow trout lazing in the river pools.

You wonder at the grandeur of the New Zealand wilds, described so freshly and arrestingly. And you meet, memorably, a New Zealand bush 'character' and highly successful author, Barry Crump. Mr Helmer's account of his adventures with Crump gives this book one of its main flavours.
