For the first time in the Boone and Crockett Club's long publishing history, they have made available a collection of stories about some of the finest big game trophies taken over the last century. All of the stories were handpicked for the special way in which each hunter captured the essence of their hunting experiences, including their tenacity, their ethics, and their respect for the game hunted.
You will feel the emotion, dedication, and excitement as you enjoy the stories of those men and women who have taken these outstanding trophies. One hunter pursued a buck over several seasons until he finally tagged what would become a new World's Record. You will read the story of a bowhunter and of the meticulous preparation and tactics that resulted in his taking of an outstanding bull elk, and most importantly, you will see that each of these hunters embraced the concept of fair chase, and for that they should be applauded.
