American Big Game in Its Haunts

American Big Game in Its Haunts by Various is a vivid anthology that plunges listeners into the golden age of North American exploration, hunting, and early conservation at the turn of the 20th century. Compiled under the auspices of the Boone and Crockett Club and featuring voices such as Theodore Roosevelt, George Bird Grinnell, and Henry Fairfield Osborn, this nonfiction collection blends natural history, first-person hunting accounts, and policy essays on wildlife preservation.
