Outlaw Gunner (NOW IN PAPERBACK)
Harry M. Walsh
The Outlaw Gunner is the colorful story of market gunning in both its legal and illegal phases. This is the tale of the market gunners, guides, and outlaws who were engaged in a unique occupation. From them comes the most authoritative and comprehensive study of the art of wildfowling ever written. "It's one of the best manuals ever written for successful legal hunting as well...Tidewater Publishers gave [Walsh] a free hand in his approach, and the results are fascinating."—Bill Burton, outdoors editor, The [Baltimore] Evening Sun
