Windward Crossings

Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
Windward Crossings is an exciting new collection of waterfowling stories by some of America's greatest sporting writers. A unique collection of fiction and creative nonfiction, this exceptional anthology includes never-before-published stories by Geoffrey Norman, Pete Fromm, Ed Gray, Ron Rau, John Hewitt and nine other distinguished contemporary essayists. These master story-tellers, all veteran hunters, prove the quintessential qualities of pursuing ducks and geese, while sometimes lifting readers to laughter or enticing them to melancholy. Regardless of the emotions they elicit, each inimitable story in this remarkable new collection will garner the reader a cherished memory. The evocative prose of Windward Crossings is complemented by the alluring etchings and color illustrations - in themselves timeless vignettes of the waterfowler's world - of another inveterate marsh hunter, artist Brett J. Smith. (11 3/4 x 9 1/4, 144 pages, color illustrations)
