From the Back Cover

Loaded with turkey-hunting anecdotes gleaned from a lifetime of experience, The American Wild Turkey not only entertains, but teaches through example. With his remarkably insightful, entertaining stories, McDaniel expounds on the finer points of turkey hunting such as: turkey habits and lore; hunting techniques; calling; and guns and gear.McDaniel's stated goal is to convey the thrills generated by turkey hunting, to impart the subtlety of the skills necessary to become a competent turkey hunter, and to increase the general public's respect for the wild turkey. He has succeeded remarkably on all counts by outdoing himself with this, his third book. His passion and enthusiasm brims from every page as he transports readers to every hunt, in stride with every hunting partner. (6 1/4 X 9 1/4, 260 pages)

Customer Reviews

The American WildTurkey3
The book is well done and deals with important issues surrouding turkey hunting by an obviously passionate turkey hunter, but he spends very little time with actual hunts. It is not a how-to book in any sense of the word.

One of the Best Books on the Subject . . . . .5
You won't find much of the how-to info that is readily found in other books. But, you will be treated to an excellent look at the spirit of turkey hunting. This book respects the hunt, respects this great American game animal, and respects those who hunt with a sense of reverence. I recommend this book highly.

#1wild turkey informational book on the market5
This book"The American Wild Turkey:Reflections on the bird,the hunt and the hunter" gives you all the information you need to successfully bag that trophy tom.It tells you a wild turkeys habits,and strenghts and weaknesses.The photography of the birds and diagrams of the set ups you need to bag your bird are extremely helpful and will leave you with no questions unanswered.Even if you think you know everything there is to know about turkeys and turkey hunting,you will still find this book both enteresting and probably informative even for you avid hunters.So I totally recommend this book to beginning and veteran turkey hunters alike.
